Worth the read

A very detailed story of a man's experience of alcoholism in his family and how addiction takes over his life. I typically have a hard time identifying with foreign authors, but Mark is easy to relate to for struggling addicts. Occasionally, he seems overly word-y, but there's no denying he is a descriptive author.

Real in the best way

This was a great book. The story really gives an inside view to this raw lifestyle and I would even recommend it to someone who is actually struggling with these issues but was capturing enough for the standard reader.

A solemn but ultimately optimistic tale

A life of horrors that no one should have to suffer. "Wasted: A Childhood Stolen, An Innocence Betrayed, A Life Redeemed" is the memoir of one Mark Johnson, who faced sexual and physical abuse from the age of four, and became an alcoholic by age eight, a junkie by age eleven, and a prison inmate by age eighteen. With such a nightmarish first two decades of life, trying to dig himself out of such a deep hole would seem nearly impossible, but Johnson managed to turn his life around. A solemn but ultimately optimistic tale, highly recommended for community library memoir collections. Diane C. Donovan California Bookwatch
