The Sober Diaries
On sale
28th December 2017
Price: £21.99
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.
