      Absolutely one of the most raw and honest books I've ever read, especially being about sobriety. I highlighted so much of it and quoted it daily. There is so much inspiration in here, I found my motivation to get sober and stay sober through this book. ? such an amazing read!!

      Sparkling (non-alcoholic), inspiring and resplendent. A wonderful thoughtful and wise, funny and searingly honest book which I shall read again. Thank you for pointing the way, and taking the road less travelled.

      An honest and profound look at one woman’s journey with sobriety. Touching, raw, and at times prose-like, Laura McKowen wove her story and insights together in a colorful and stunning tapestry. This is a beautiful read for anyone - in recovery or not.

      This book will always hold a special place in my own recovery as it was the first ‘QuitLit’ book I picked up. Laura story telling is engaging and her wisdom is digestible and incredibly relatable. Over the past year she has continued to be a voice of hope and inspiration to me.
