Adolescence, drugs, and dating. In this issue of $pare ¢hange, the Reverend continues a story that was last published twelve issues ago! Without having read the previous chapters, the introduction tells me this is a true story; names changed to protect identities. A narrative of the author’s youth—dating, doing drugs, and, in general, just doing the things normal teens do. In this issue, our author goes to a house party that spirals out of control, starts and ends relationships with a few girls, and tries acid for the first time. A straightforward, coming-of-age installment of one punk’s youth. –Tricia Ramos ($pare ¢hange, PO Box 6023, Chattanooga, TN 37401)
