Highly recommended books?
Since I am new to coming out of denial that I have an AH, I have read on many of your posts all of the great books and information that you have read. I am going to visit my siblings this weekend and wanted to go to the bookstore and buy a couple of helpful books. I know that there are tons of different books and sources out there. I am just curious as to which ones you would "highly" recommend to read? Thank you for any input!

welcome!!
Addict in the Family by Beverly Conyers - probably best to order online.
She does a good job of explaining all the behaviors we see in the addict, where that kind of reasoning comes from, and the effect of drugs/alcohol on the brain. Helped me not be so confused about how to react to the addict.
Again, welcome
