Has anyone else read this book? Whats your take on this?

If you havent read the book, and you're interested, its a almost true (hence the controversy) story about the author, James Frey, and his time in rehab. If there's anybody interested in non-AA recovery, his is an inspiring story. Without AA he's stayed sober 13 years.

Great book, I believe the story's true, but The Smoking Gun's documents dont lie. Maybe he did stretch the truth in some places, and it doesnt affect the main part of the story, but it does affect other things in the book.

Oh well, believe what you like..
