I always laugh (and want to cry) when I hear people says things to the effect of, "Living Sober - pshaw! it's not the Big Book."
It's like, ummm, did it ever claim it was the Big Book? It is what it says it is. |
I don't think tomvIII wanted a book review, but I'll give him my short synopsis
I love Living Sober, I pick up used copies when I can find 'em cheap and give them to the newcomers who stick around awhile.
Not as a replacement for the BB and 12&12, but in my opinion the book is like "Hints & Helpful Tips For, Well, Living Sober!"
I don't believe is was intended as "transition" material, it's just "further reading".
