Five out of five from Scarlet. Thank you Emily Dubberley!
Do you like getting hammered every so often? So did the author of this book, until she realised that she was screwing her life up. She wasn’t technically an alcoholic, but she was most definitely out of control. And so she gave it up. This book could so easily be self-indulgent and dull, but instead it offers a wonderfully candid insight into what could be any binge drinker’s life (albeit with a fair few class As thrown in).
Honest and educational without being preachy, it’s enough to put you off drunk, or at least help you cut down to reasonable levels, and although you may not like every aspect of the author that you encounter in her journey, you’ll certainly respect her in the morning.
