I enjoyed this novel because even though it is a lighthearted "chick lit" kind of read, it deals with a serious problem, alcohol addiction. I've not run across a protagonist who is female, in her late 20's, who is an alcoholic and reaching her first year of sobriety. Her character is a bit exhausting, but overall I enjoyed the story.

Not bad- a lady in recovery reaches one year sober and things really start to derail in her life, disproving her original idea that one clean year means everything makes sense in your life again. I thought it was sweet, and I also appreciated how by the end of the book she had redefined what her sober journey and the chosen recovery family she surrounded herself looked like.
