I just finished reading 'Best Kept Secret' by Amy Hatvany....fictional story of an alcoholic mother based on the real life recovery of the author. Really great book (especially for moms).
Also 'Dry', Augusten Burroughs.
Thanks LDT. I have
Pack of Two on order and plan to read it aloud to my Labrador. Now I'll get
Dry as well. I read Burroughs'
Running With Scissors and found it hilarious. In a disturbing way.
It's very early days for me, as I said, and I'm struggling with some of the hokey language in the Big Book. I am persevering, but it's super helpful for me to read stories of recovery written in the kind of perverse, cynical voice I'm used to when it comes to literature.
