The Sober Diaries

How One Woman Stopped Drinking and Started Living

De: Clare Pooley

Narrado por: Karen Cass

The must-listen, hilarious memoir that tells you how to stop drinking and start living

Answers questions such as: How do I know if I'm drinking too much? How will I cope at parties? What do I say to friends and family? How do I cope with cravings? What if my partner still drinks?

With a successful career and family life, Clare Pooley never expected to find herself an overweight, depressed, middle-aged mother of three who was drinking more than a bottle of wine a day, and spending her evenings Googling, 'Am I an alcoholic?'

This is the bravely honest and hilariously funny story of a year in Clare's life. A year that started with her quitting booze and then being given the devastating diagnosis of breast cancer. By the end of the year she is booze and cancer-free, two-stone lighter and with a life that is richer and more rewarding than ever before.

Reseñas de la Crítica

Brutally honest and sparkily funny

The Sober Diaries is a misconception-busting book, which draws on Pooley's extensive research.

This book helped me so much!

I definitely recommend this book to anyone who is trying to stop drinking alcohol. Clare Pooley is so inspirational!

Very Insightful Book

I am cutting down, not quiting and this held enough great information to make it easier. Luckily I am not as heavy of a drinking so cutting down is a great option. I enjoy a glass or two of wine with most dinners and would hate to remove that enjoyment from my life. Anyhow, great book for cutting down also. She is a really good writer.

so easy to listen to, loved the true story

Loved the book, relatable,easy to listen to, humorous, great story, honest, real,will listen to again.

Terrfic story

This book made me laugh, and made cry. Most importantly Clare helped me understand what to expect over the next year as I become sober. And Karen Cass is a beautiful story teller, loved how she read this to me.

Great book, highly recommend!!

Very smart and entertaining. Food for thought about drinking. Great book. My favourite like was something like this 'the problem with AA is that it is the exact opposite of Soho House, they let anyone join and nobody really wants to be there'. Its funny and smart.

If you think you drink too much it will be informative, but it is entertaining either way.
