Books With Drugs

A list of books featuring drug use. I have not included some memoirs and autobiographies, otherwise the list would stretch on forever. These are just what I consider to be the main, most canon books on drugs. In some, it's just part of the descriptions, for others it's the whole damn story.
Have fun and read responsibly!
(The picture is of an older William Burroughs)
