This book was a very impotent insight into the reality of addiction, especially through the lives of surrounding loved ones. this book really made the reader experience the feelings that come along with recovery, and the stellar writing by kathleen glasgow only helped the books purpose. The reason for its four star rating was to me this book was lacking a strong plot. this may be a personal thing becuase this book is a little diffrent from what i normally reach for, but since there was no strong question or event I was anticipating, i found myself getting bored often, and it took a little bit longer to read than normal. overall i did enjoy this book, and the writing style had me feeling concern and all of the other emotions for the characters, but I probably won’t be picking this up again. make sure to check TW before giving this a try!
