Drinking: A Love Story by Caroline Knapp

5.0

By turns heart-rending and uplifting, this addiction memoir is a very strong example of the genre.

Spoiler

What broke my heart though, was finding out partway through this that Caroline dies of lung cancer after quitting drinking, and 6 years after this book was published. The book finishes before then, on a very strong resolute note

I guess it's a lesson not to waste time stagnating in a bad place.
