Summary

An unflinching and hilarious memoir about recovery as a mother of young kids, Bottled explains the perils moms face with drinking and chronicles the author's path to recovery, from hitting bottom to the months of early sobriety - a blur of pain and chaos - to her now (in)frequent moments of peace.   

Punctuated by potent, laugh-out-loud sarcasm, Bottled offers practical suggestions on how to be a sober, present-in-the-moment mom, one day at a time, and provides much needed levity on an issue too often treated with deadly seriousness.

Just what I needed

I am in my first week of sobriety and this has been exactly what I needed as a momma of 4 boys under 8. Thank you so much for having the courage to write this book!

Please skip.

I got two hours in and couldn’t make it any further. The first two hours barely mentioned drinking, only Jesus and marriage, so if you’re looking for quit lit, please look elsewhere. I recommend We are the Luckiest for moms.
