Story
Perhaps the most unconventional and literally breathtaking father-son story you'll ever read, My Friend Leonard pulls you immediately and deeply into a relationship as unusual as it is inspiring. The father figure is Leonard, the high-living, recovering coke addict, "West Coast Director of a large Italian-American finance firm" (read: mobster) who helped to keep James Frey clean in A Million Little Pieces.

Story
What could possibly be “lucky” about addiction? Absolutely nothing, thought Laura McKowen when drinking brought her to her knees. As she puts it, she “kicked and screamed . . . wishing for something - anything - else” to be her issue. The people who got to drink normally, she thought, were so damn lucky. But in the midst of early sobriety, when no longer able to anesthetize her pain and anxiety, she realized that she was actually the lucky one. Lucky to feel her feelings, live honestly, really be with her daughter, change her legacy.

With heart-racing urgency and unflinching honesty, Jenkins takes you inside the grips of addiction and the desperate decisions it breeds.

But the true surprise is her path to recovery. Tiffany breaks through the stigma and silence to offer hope and inspiration to anyone battling the disease - whether it’s a loved one or themselves.

Story
At the age of 24, Jordan Barnes woke up next to a lifeless body, rifled through his dead friends’ pockets for any remaining heroin, and went right back to using. Strung out and homeless during the supposed best years of his life, there was no clear way out of the opioid crisis ravaging the streets of Portland, Oregon. But though Jordan had long accepted his fate, his parents still held out hope and would do everything in their power to get him the help he so desperately needed.

Publisher's Summary
An intense, instantly engaging, hard-hitting, yet beautifully written memoir of a life beyond the brink that touches every nerve.
James Frey wakes up on a plane, with no memory of the preceding two weeks. His face is cut and his body is covered with bruises. He has no wallet and no idea of his destination. He has abused alcohol and every drug he can lay his hands on for a decade - and he is aged only 23.
What happens next is one of the most powerful and extreme stories ever told. His family takes him to a rehabilitation centre. And James Frey starts his perilous journey back to the world of the drug and alcohol-free living. His lack of self-pity is unflinching and searing.
A Million Little Pieces is a dazzling account of a life destroyed and a life reconstructed. It is also the introduction of a bold and talented literary voice.

Engrossing
This is not the first time I have experienced James Frey's AMLP cover to cover and it won't be the last.
A great performance by Tim Flavin of probably my favourite book of all time. Exciting, emotional and powerful. 10/10

Changed my life
This story is stand alone in its take on addiction and recovery. Read it many, many moons ago. The only thing that detracts from the book is James Frey feeling the need to explain himself in the beginning. It has always been a story. And in the words of the greatest storyteller Stephen king “write what you know”. Quite obviously James has walked the path and his truths resound loudly and clearly. Making it a great story with many truths and a success story shared. Any who did not understand the concept of story should be ashamed and James shouldn’t feel the need to explain a thing to these people. Thanks for sharing x

Entertaining
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes. Staggering insights in to the mind of an addict that allow an individual to gain a greater understanding of the mental challenges that arise through going cold-turkey.

A Million Little Pieces
This was a great book! I bought it after I saw the trailer for the upcoming movie.
I found it a little repetitive in parts but over all it was really good

Couldn’t finish it
The subject matter was what initially interested me, however I couldn’t get into it. The style was difficult to enjoy and the characters didn’t grab me.

As a recovering addict and clinician it was easy to spot the lies. It was a frustrating book to listen to.
