Beautiful Boy: A Father's Journey Through His Son's Addiction Paperback – 6 January 2009

To accompany David on his journey, has been a deep experience of a father’s love, threading its way through hope, terror, despair, and spiritual awakening, as he simply cannot give up on his beautiful boy Nic. I’m yet to read a more poignant love story!

When you read stories of drug addicts/addiction, it's usually from the perspective of the victim. This particular memoir is based on a family, whose son struggles with drug addiction, written from the perspective of the father. It highlights the struggles a family goes through when a member of the family falls victim to substance abuse. This is a true-story memoir and the father/author, David Sheff, portrays his emotions through beautifully constructed words. It is a heartbreaking memoir and I highly recommend this to everyone. This is a must-read!

The book has small fonts. It's strain to the eyes. Otherwise the book is good.

I only bought this for the movie, but honestly fell in love with the book itself, would definitely help people going through such problems.

Good book given that its thrifted. Little shabby though.

A must read! Full of hope and determination
