Down The Tubes by Kate Rigby

4 Stars

Fascinating Story

Rigby pens a grandly dramatic story with Down the Tubes. Rigby focuses her storytelling on drug addiction. She writes with a detail that brings the destruction of drugs and abuse to the story. She not only gives us characters that are addicted to drugs but also how it affects the lives of everyone around them. The strength and weaknesses of the characters filled with flaws and just trying to live life and survive, leapt off the pages. This story of Rigby was hard-hitting, gritty and raw, and it was a fascinating read.
