A Million Little Pieces

A Million Little Pieces is a semi-fictional novel, written by James Fray. The book takes place in a rehab center in Minnesota. James is the main character who is addicted to almost everything.  He is twenty-three when his parents pick him up from the airport and drop him off at the rehab center. The book follows James through his recovery and the people he meets in the center.
            This book was ok, but defiantly not one of my favorites. It uses a lot of harsh langue, which almost gets annoying after a while. It is a book that truly lets you look into the life of a drug addict and how dirty it truly is. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend this book to anyone; it is a struggle to read because it’s so depressing. I rate this book a B.

  2. I'm not a fan of depressing books, but it sounds interesting. I would think maybe it would make a better movie. What do you think?

  3. My mom dislikes this book just because of his "exaggerations" on what really happened to him! He didn't make Oprah too happy either ;) I'm sure it is a little depressing. I think I'll take your advice and maybe overlook this one.

  6. This is a book I kind of feel I should read, but it just doesn't sound that interesting. Based on your review, I think I'll let myself take a pass on this.
