Publisher's Synopsis
Smashing Sobriety is not your average sober story. It's a book jam-packed with wit, humor, coping tips, and sage advice. The book tells the tale of 2 women who, although living in stark contrast to each other, meet through a sobriety program and become best friends. The story features snippets and tales from each of the women's pasts. It also focuses on the future and how each of them worked their way to not just a sober life but an enjoyable and rewarding sober lifestyle. Within these pages, you will learn how 2 people just like you, with very different backgrounds, found themselves in the very same place: alcoholism. You will hear their embarrassing stories of drunken escapades, and you will undoubtedly shed a tear or experience a cringe or 2 when realizing just how far down the rabbit hole alcohol really took them. You will also be provided with a series of realistic and helpful tips when it comes to controlling urges, dealing with blips, avoiding slip-ups, and socializing absolutely sober (while still having fun). Both Carla and Lila tell their story in a way that will undoubtedly win your heart. Not only are their stories both heartwarming, but they are humorous, witty, and relatable too. This is the perfect book to pick up on Day 1, after a blip, or just because. It's the book for every person wanting to live a sober life (and actually enjoy it).
