    Fantastic book

    This was a 'used' copy but in good condition. I was more than happy with the physical look of this second hand book. It was packaged well and arrived on time. In terms of content, I have yet to finish the book but from what I've read so far I've found it inspirational, compelling, positive and a fantastic approach to the subject. I've read quite a lot of books around this matter and this one stands out amongst the best. I was tired and weary of reading books about excessive behaviour and addiction, that were downbeat, depressing and preachy. I applaud the author and would recommend it to anyone who indeed, would like to see and hear the sunshine of sobriety.

    Starting to address a difficult addiction.

    This is a good book, written from direct experience. It gives good techniques to deal with situations and provides vital understanding for a supporting family. It's a very open an honest account of a difficult addiction and how to begin to overcome it. Thanks.

  • Excellent, inspiring.

    This is an excellent self help book for those who are considering the increasing trend to be alcohol free. Like all the best self help books, it is written with the passion of someone who has been there, but as well backed up with current thinking. The author, a journo who has (amongst other things in her glittering career) written for "Cosmo" and "Glamour" magazine, and thiis shows in her style of writing. It is interesting how she has identified our culture as one where. non drinkers are considered "boring". Well worth a read, and definately of interest to clinicians.

    Really interesting book. As a non drinker but surrounded by drinkers it has given me tremendous insight into their world and also no longer making me feel a social pariah for wanting to remain a non drinker
