After a long year of sobriety, Kristina finds herself once again addicted to the "monster".
She thinks she can control it but now with a baby to care for she constantly dreams of getting high. "Six months since we met up again we are inseparable, an intricate weave. No longer do I believe this is a temporary fling, more like total commitment, more like I have walked down the aisle, holding hands with the monster."
I would recommend this to someone because it has real life family issues and experiences throughout the book. Someone could relate to this book in many ways if they've been through similar situations. The main character has two different personalities that the author portrays as Kristina Georgia Snow and the other as "Bree". The author relays both plot points and drug addiction through each separated verse, first painting Kristina's self narration and then her self-destruction.
"Forever has no meaning when you're living in the moment. I wasn't ready for that moment to end."
In the end, Kristina's addicted ways leads for the loved ones around her to stop supporting her and giving her the easier way out. Kristina is now left abandoned with the "monster".
