I am such a huge fan of Susan Juby and I was thrilled to find out
that she wrote this book (and a little surprised).
In Nice Recovery, we get to find out a lot more about the author of
the Alice series. She is incredibly honest her battle and addiction
with booze - and I applaud her for having the courage to write
about a subject that is so personal.
Its amazing to me, after reading her story, that she has managed to
come out of her experience. Its obvious that Juby was deep into her
addiction and thankfully, she managed to get help - it is an
inspiring story that leads a person and author that is sober and
healthy enough to write this book.
I detect Juby's writing style immediated in this book - although
the subject matter is way more serious than her usual YA style, you
can still detect the humour and overall tone of hope - I loved
it.
Written with raw honesty and very touching, I find myself rooting
for Juby to stay clean and sober so that she can lead a happy life
and continue to give us great stories.
