Absolutely loved this read!

Published by Steph , 3 months ago

Very informative, real and educational! Breaks down the reality of addiction, how our country has gotten it all wrong. I highly recommend.

One of the best books I've ever read.

Generally, I am not real keen on reading non-fiction for pleasure. This one was SO good, though, that I have a running list of who needs to borrow it next. It reads so well with all of the personal stories and accounts. It will make you question everything you've ever thought of drugs and addiction. Instead of pushing ideas down our throats, Hari explores for himself different aspects of the War On Drugs, and you will be hard-pressed to avoid any life-changing opinions.
