You really feel the shorts season with this one and since they waited so long for them to come together the last few episodes felt a but rushed so I do wish they would have extended the season to the normal 13 episodes I feel like it really would have helped the pacing of the season.
If you couldn't tell I really truly hated Iron Fist with a passion he was such an obnoxious epitome of rich white male privilege and he really did drag this season down for me since almost every time he was on screen I found my focus drifting off. I will admit I did enjoy his interactions with Luke Cage.

In short, this is basically the drag version of America’s Next Top Model and personally I think it’s a much better version as it doesn’t take itself too seriously. It has it's heartfelt moments, but for the most part it’s just a hilariously entertaining show with some silly tasks and bonkers and bitchy contestants. RuPaul is a great host, but I really don’t like it when he’s plugging/mentioning the brand name sponsors - I’m not sure if it’s because he seems uncomfortable himself, but it doesn’t come across as very genuine, probably because it’s cheesy advertised and horribly scripted. Also, I’m not sure this show is made for binge watching all 10+ series in the space of a few months - I did get a little sick of hearing the same lines and music episode after episode. I’m sure it’s not quite as bad when you don’t watch loads of episodes in one go!
Despite this, it’s still a highly entertaining and rather addictive show to watch. And a welcome breath of fresh air to other similar shows.

However, said advertising for this novel is rather misleading. I don't think it gives much away to say that the bridge scene leads off and takes about 2 seconds of the novel. The rest of the book alternates between Ron's story and Maris'. It's interesting, seeing the story unfold from their perspectives, but lags a bit, and Ron's sections drag somewhat. There isn't much that pushes the plot forward -- while billed as a thriller, there doesn't seem to be much mystery here, just psychological issues. I enjoyed Maris' scenes, for the most part, and the people she met along her journey, but perhaps didn't grasp the entire point...
Anyway, this one didn't really do it for me. It had its good moments, but overall wasn't my favorite.
(I received a copy of this book via Netgalley in return for an unbiased review.)

It feels weird to say I enjoyed this book due to its subject matter, but I did. It's a very good perspective on just what it means to deal with addiction, from growing up with it due to a family member being involved in drugs to getting dragged down into it yourself.
I will agree with a few other reviewers that the beginning does seem to drag a little bit, as there's a lot of time spent describing her elementary school years, but it's necessary to show what the girls went through dealing with their mom and her addiction and the fallout from all of that. It really picks up after that as we're focusing more on Faith's issues from that point on rather than her mom's, and I was pulled into her story.
While getting my Master's in Forensic Psychology, I had to study addiction of all types, including drugs, and I found this to be a very accurate representation of what it's like to grow up with it, deal with it firsthand, and try to bring yourself out of it.
Very interesting read!
5 stars
