Expect nothing. That's where the trouble starts. Each and every day will be what it is. Seek your own recovery though Al-Anon, and leave him to his. The more you "help," the more you monitor, and the more you interfere, the less chance he has of staying sober.
My 2 cents.
Take what you want and leave the rest.

P.s. For the love of God, please reconsider giving him the book. My wife used to do that all the time. Do you really think, even for a second, he will read the book? It's just another form of passive-aggressive control in the disguise of "helping" or a "gift."
