I've read the first book, beautiful boy and this book Tweak I'm just starting. I would recommend these books to any parent. They are absolutely an eye-opener and very important for parents of teens that are using drugs. It really gets to your heart and brings tears to your eyes.
The best books I've read in a long time and they are true stories. Please buy them, it's a must.....
Thanks alot. Becky

Read "Beautiful Boy" by David Sheff 1st and this book is a great follow-up. Nic paints a very good picture of life as an addict and the struggles he goes through.

This book is terrible! I read Nic Sheff's father's book, Beautiful Boy, and that was a great book. You can really sense how much he loves his son, so I thought I would enjoy getting to know him in Tweak. Not even close! I halfway think Nic is still on drugs writing this book. He jumps around so much and it just talks about him shooting up and having sex the whole time. I ended the book thinking he is this spoiled little brat who has an ego the size of San Francisco. Loser! Don't waste your time.

This book arrived in three days in very good shape, packaged very well. I am already half way through the book and saved alot of money buying it this way. I read "Beautiful Boy", a true story written by a father about his journey through his son's meth addiction. Tweak is a true story written by his son who was addicted to meth. Very good book and I would recommend it to others who has lived this journey.

I heard about this story on Oprah and became extremely curious and interested. It was definitely not a let-down and never have I been so consumed by a book. I really could not put it down. It is extremely real and open as the author describes his thoughts, feelings, and experiences as he goes through relapses and trying to stay clean. I would reccomend this book to not only drug addicts and family members of drug addicts, but anyone. If you look at Nic Sheff's story with a sense of compassion and aren't too judgemental, it will open your eyes to the struggles of others and give you a deeper understanding of their pain. It is rather graphic and disturbing at times but this is only because it is reality.
