A Book Worth Reading

I am reading a book that I thought was worthwhile sharing. It's called "Sober is the New Black" and I highly recommend it. I can totally relate to everything that the author is saying in this book....I think we've all been there. It's an easy read and it is motivational......

Thanks for sharing, Winesucks and welcome to the forum.

I found reading helped me to reinforce my decision to get sober. I hope it does for you also.

I couldn't find the book at the bookstore WineSucks, but may order it at some point.

What I did find was "Broken: My Story of Addiction and Redemption," by William Cope Moyers. Great book if you want to read about addiction/recovery. I couldn't seem to set it down when I started reading it last night. I recommend it.
