I have not yet finished it, but I can't stop thinking about it. When I'm working or doing other things, I feel an urge get back to it. This is one of those books that pulls you in and rushes through you as quickly as you can absorb it. I will miss it when it's finished.

I just finished this book and I cannot sleep - it is 3:15 in the morning and all I can do is sit and think. Read it, now.

This book is just published in dutch. The way of writing cought me and didn't let go of me untill I finished reading the book. It was wonderfull. Touching. Frightening. Humoristic. Horrible.
This book is must to read! I think and hope it'll have a value in our society!

Wordless, simply wordless.

This book created a sense of reality of the pain and abuse someone would be able to do to themselves. In sharing most of the same addictions as James Fry, I also went through Hazelden's youth program not to long ago. Not only could I relate to his story but I was also filled with hope by his commitment to sobriety. I highly recommend this book to everyone including teenagers like myself.

I love A Million Little Pieces. I have told everyone I know to read this book, but I'm finding it hard to lend out to others. The book is so important to me, I can't part with it! James Frey, you are so brave. Your brutual truth was wonderful and beautiful and very appreciated. Thank you for A Million Little Pieces. Thank you with all of my heart.

I can't tell you how much I loved this book. The style is superbly refreshing (I am always on the look out for something new) and the narrative is so compelling. I had to read some of the bits through my fingers because I couldn't bear to look - can't say any other writing has ever had that effect on me. Charlotte Abbott from "Publishers Weekly" wrote that it felt like you were being "injected with something" and for me that certainly rang true; I am certainly under the influence and can't wait for more - I want it NOW!
Nate

This book is a truly genuine account of the struggles with alcohol and drug addiction. James Frey uses a vivid yet irregular writing style that is nothing but intriguing. A Million Little Pieces is a rare look into the real life of an addict. I have nothing bad to say about this book because it truly is a masterpiece of emotion.
