Reading Junkie when I was young put me off ever even trying heroin. Definitely not romanticized.
Sherlock Holmes and Heroin. Nero Wolfe and food.
Though I guess one could say these are exceptions that prove the rule.
Although Holmes’ vice was cocaine rather than heroin.

No, there are two Sara Gran books on there. (I wrote the piece, btw.)
Another sausage fest:
Ah, interesting, I didn’t realize. I got it in my head it was heroin from a long ago memory of seeing Jeremy Brett’s Holmes shoot up something.
It’s a fact I can’t help but point out whenever anyone mentions Robert Downey Junior’s stint as Holmes.
“Five books that are tepid at best and a couple paragraphs whining about books that unlike the five listed, are actually somewhat enjoyable.”
Yikes. Who peed in your Cheerios?
