review 1: I enjoyed hearing the author's perspective about her post-drinking life. It was pretty inspiring to hear her story and how she totally turned her life around. Some parts were a bit slow,and she did come off as a big arrogant to me (but then again, I think that about the author of every memoir I read...I mean, you must think you're something special if you're writing a book about events in your life), but all in all I thought it was well written (the author is a big fan of the word "eschew" which I dug, and I learned the word "solipsism" as well, which I had seen, but didn't really understand). I'd recommend it if you're looking for a somewhat cheeky, somewhat uplifting story of making a new beginning.
review 2: I really, really enjoyed this book. It's a ver... morey humorous book (she can't believe there are people in the world who actually depart from their restaurant table and leave an unfinished glass of wine, and after she's sober, nothing pisses her off more). I'm not nearly as big a drunk as this chick, but there's a lot of wisdom in here that has nothing to do with alcohol. I already look forward to reading it again. less
