Description

To Sara, alcohol was “fuel for adventures.” She spent evenings at cocktail parties and in dark bars, proudly staying until the very last ring. She saw drinking as freedom and considered herself a strong, enlightened woman of the 21st century.

But everything has its price. And Sara reached the line beyond which there was only an abyss. She needed a solid reason to start a new life, stop self-destruction, and try to save herself.

By giving up alcohol, she discovers the person she had been burying since she was thirteen: and to her surprise, that person turns out to be strong and resilient—someone who clearly knows what she wants and how to achieve it.

This inspiring book about hope, joy, forgiveness, and self-acceptance will help you understand yourself and finally begin what you may have been postponing for a long time.
