Question: Has anyone read!.!. and does anyone have any suggestions!?
Has anyone read Rolling Away- My Agony with Ecstasy!?
I thought it was a phenomenal book, telling the real life struggle of a girl addicted to ecstasy wonderfully!.
I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a good book I might be interested in!? I have a hard time staying focused and interested in books!. I prefer books about sex, drugs, alcohol, and eating disorders!. Maybe even something like Twilight!? And no, I'm not another crazy Twilight fan!. I only liked the first book and all the crazy fans killed it for me!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
"In my Skin" by Kate Holden - excellent book - true story written by herself and struggle with a heroin addiction that led her to prostitution!. Very explicit about her time in brothels a real eye opener!.
She came from a "good family" but just thought she'd try it once when she was in a down mood!. Anyway wont tell more or will spoil it!. She was also in a episode of "Australian Story" on channel 2 which is how I found out about the book!. I've lent it to so many people and they all love it! Will definitely read Rolling Away as it sounds like a similar line!. Makes me feel better about my addictive personality (food or Alcohol) and inspires me to take charge!.

William Burroughs !. !. !.
In particular, his novel "Junky"!. You could also try "Naked Lunch" if you don't dislike unconventional writing forms !. !. !.
also: Charles Bukowski!. Famous alcoholic, womanizer and poet!. Try "Ham on Rye"; it's about his childhood and adolescence!. It's a sad book but funny and philosophical about it at the same time!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
