James Frey, thank you for the three books you’ve published so far.
I first read “million little pieces” in swedish (the translation into swedish reduced millions to thousands), then in english. The book was a little better in english, so with the other two books I only read them in english.

From now on when I need to be strong in life I will try to think of James Frey.

Hi James,

I’ve read both ‘A million Little Pieces’ and ‘My Friend Leonard’.

I just wanted to say Thank You for writing two brilliant books that makes a person look outside the life and comforts that once you’ve had for a while you take for granted.

I’ve never cried at a book like I did when I finished ‘My Friend Leonard’.

I look forward to reading ‘Bright Shiny People’ and any further books you write and publish.

I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart. I have never read a book till the end in my life. I’m 39 years old. My sister has been an addict for the last 25 years. I have never really understood her. I bought your book to maybe see how her life has been. I couldn’t put it down. I have read both of your books now and would love to see more like this. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart…I have found a love for reading now. :0) laurie

Hi james,

I read your book “A Million Little Fibers” awhile after it came out and actually got more interested to read it from the South Park episode where Towlie writes a book called “A Million Little Fibers”. I just wanted to say thank you. I read it in a time in my life where I was dealing with a lot of emotional issues and it really helped me stay present with my feelings and I believe it helped me heal. The way it was written immediately stuck me and pulled me in. The truth that came thru and the pure emotion was overhelming at times, but so beautiful. So after I finished it I saw a copy of “My Friend Leonard” at my coucellers office library. I borrowed it and ripped right thru it. Another beautiful book. At the time I was dealing with sexuality issues and the moment I read Leonard say “I’m gay.” I sort of came out of my body for a moment. I think on a deep level I knew that that was true to myself too. I was very afraid that I related so much to the character but it made it more real in my mind. It took awhile for me to understand and actually let myself feel certain urges but I feel so much better about what I am. Again, thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings.

Nick.

Hey Someone!
got a really URGENT question – Does ANYONE know, which TRANSLATION of the TAO TE KING James Frey quotes from in his “A Million Little Pieces”
Please help me out – I searched for days, after I read it – and I had read about 5-8 translations up to that moment.
It’s a few years now – and I still didn’t come accross that particular translation…
THX A LOT

I fell in love with Esperanza and Doug and their love. And when Dylan didn’t come back I cried in my living room. How come you couldn’t bring him back? It could have been just 1 more page that said:

Maddie woke up, Dylan was sitting on her bed smiling.

And just that? just so I wouldn’t have to be sad all day now.
