I found this to be a bit triggering to be honest. Maybe it's just how I'm feeling in my sobriety right now, but glamorous descriptions of glasses of things outside of a meeting? I can do without that. This was my first and probably my last dip into ‘quit lit'.
This was a pretty good listen, but fell down a little at the end. Most of the book was the years leading up to rehab/detox, a little time in rehab/detox, and then the follow-up was a blur. I think I was expecting a little more of her making amends to friends and family, and this seemed to be something she wasn't willing to share. This is someone's real life, and so I don't think the author is obligated to share everything. At the same time, this doesn't stop those choices from detracting from the quality of the reading/listening experience. (The narrator did a nice job.)
