I've read this book once, back when I was a middle schooler examining the teen fiction section of the library. it hit me hard. i was in eighth grade and had plans to try coke with my friends that they got from their dad. i ended up not going through with it because of this book. this book, no, the writing itself made me feel a flurry of emotions. What Bree felt, I felt. The writing struck me internally and it was amazing. when she had her drops, I was grouchy and felt terrible.. but when she was high, I soared through the clouds.
