High on Arrival.
This book has everything you could want in a knocked out, true story, tortured daughterhood, druggie tales life....WITH loads of celebrity figureheads as cohorts.
This is a sad true story, but as a person who not seem to change the channel when Celebrity Rehab is on, this book is a page turner.  A good read and certainly not forgettable.

There are a million characters in this book.  It's hard to follow in the beginning.  Like walking down a street in Cairo, a person can not take it all in at once.  At first you find bits that catch your interest.  And then suddenly you're caught up in the city and the characters.  There are such a limited number of paths a woman can take in Egypt, I do not fault any of these women for doing what they can to find their way to comfort.
