((hugs))
I loved "the glass castle"-by jennette walls!! I thought it was so inspiring, That woman really survived against all odds.

This is not a recovery book, but it is useful to improve any interpersonal communication-
"nonviolent communication" by Rosenberg. It is a technique for dealing with conflict you encounter with other people. we had it for both my counseling classes and it really works.

There was another book we had for that class that was useful for anyond trying to make change in thier life..."changing for good" by Prochaska. He studied people who made successful changes in thier life and how they did it. He has 5 stages and also relapse.


Does anyone like Lynda Barry?
