A true story of surviving the worst and discovering the magic of everyday.

How would you live differently if life gave you a second chance?

Brian Pennie shouldn’t be alive today. His drug addiction was so bad that he was deemed too much of a risk for detox. Determined to confront his demons, he went cold turkey at home. On 8 October 2013, he was finally clean after 15 years of heroin addiction and something extraordinary happened: the world suddenly became beautiful. Given a second chance at life, he devoured every minute of it.

Bit by bit he rebuilt his world, returning to university to study neuroscience in a bid to understand the source of his suffering. In this incredibly honest and inspirational narrative, Brian tells the story of how he turned a seemingly hopeless existence into a rich and rewarding life, showing that change is always possible, no matter how stuck we feel.

Fantastic and inspiring!

This book was just so...much - in a great way. First of all, the narrator was awesome. My internal voice had an Irish accent weeks after I finished the book - and I'm Jamaican lol. Secondly, Brian's story is just incredible. I'm really glad he survived his addiction, and very glad he decided to share his life with the world.
