This book is a memoir by Heather King. Heather is a writer, lawyer, and NPR commentator. This book is her memoir, about her addiction to alcohol. I found this book to be very well written, and it definitely kept my interest through out. But wow, she really makes what I consider to be my drinking problem laughable. Some of the things she did made me shudder with disgust. Like telling of how she would wake up so in need of a drink, she would skim floating dead cockroaches off of stale and warm cups of beer, left in her apartment from the night before, to drink. Often putting her life in danger, it's a miracle she is here today. I would definitely recommend this book.
