Got me some funny looks on the u-bahn. I am glad i have never succumbed to the demon alcohol, given my pedigree it was probably on the cards. plenty of time yet :).

Terrific book - really gives an insight into the alcoholic from a woman's perspective.  Great read for everyone.

One of the first and best "drinking memoirs" I have read.  Honest.

A book one must read if having difficulty understanding the addictive mind.  Caroline was a born writer, and hearing her experiences through her excellent writing style makes this a powerful book.  I recommend it to everyone - not just alcoholics.
