In the years that followed, he would regularly smoke pot, do cocaine and Ecstasy, and develop addictions to crystal meth and heroin. Even so, he felt like he would always be able to quit and put his life together whenever he needed to. It took a violent relapse one summer in California to convince him otherwise. In a voice that is raw and honest, Nic spares no detail in telling us the compelling, heartbreaking, and true story of his relapse and the road to recovery. As we watch Nic plunge into the mental and physical depths of drug addiction, he paints a picture for us of a person at odds with his past, with his family, with his substances, and with himself. It's a harrowing portrait--but not one without hope.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atheneum Books for Young Readers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781416913627\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 325\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.93lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.49h x 5.76w x 1.16d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2007 pg. 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/15\/2007 pg. 34\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eVoice of Youth Advocates\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2007 pg. 462 - Reviewed - More Editing Needed\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Review - Children\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/15\/2007 pg. 1301\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBulletin of Ctr for Child Bks\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2008 pg. 226\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/25\/2008 pg. 81\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/24\/2008 pg. 22\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePeople Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/17\/2008 pg. 150\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2008 - Recommended, Satisfactory\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2008 pg. 456 - Recommended, Satisfactory\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e121973 \/ Tweak: Growing Up on Methamphetamines\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.9 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Upper Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 17\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Nic Sheff","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36649913286812,"sku":"9781416913627","price":18.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_7d984611-20cb-43c1-b7f0-4dc47e416912.jpg?v=1603874024","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/tweak-growing-up-on-methamphetamines-9781416913627","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
