Drinking Games by Sarah Levy
4.0

Drinking Games is an honest and raw account of Sarah Levy's history with alcoholism, detailing how she lived as a party girl and then her journey to sobriety.

I respect so much that Sarah didn't hold back with this memoir. Laying out your faults and struggles that way is no easy feat, and this book was unflinchingly honest. I connected to her writing voice consistently throughout the book.

I did get confused at times as the timeline is not chronological and was hard to piece together at times, but otherwise I felt this was a rare memoir that gave me everything I wanted from the story and more.

Thanks so much to St. Martin's Press as well as NetGalley for the opportunity to read an advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
