âTriumphant, moving, and wildly entertaining. This is an unabashed and completely relatable account of getting clean and getting a life.ââSteve Geng, author of Thick as Thieves
The single glass of wine with dinner . . . the cold beer on a hot day . . . the champagne flute raised in a toast . . . what Iâd drink if Hunter S. Thompson wanted to get wasted with me . . . these are my fantasies lately. Too bad I've gone sober.
When Sacha Z. Scoblic was drinking, she was a rock star; the days were rough and the nights filled with laughter and blackouts. Then she gave it up. She had to. Here are her adventures in an utterly and maddeningly sober worldâand how she discovered that nothing is as odd and fantastic as life without a drink in hand. . .
âA gripping, inspiring tale that picks up where most sobriety memoirs leave off . . . This is a story for anyone trying to enact meaningful change in their lives.ââEmma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus, #1 New York Times-bestselling coauthors of The Nanny Diaries
âHilarious and heartbreaking, Unwasted is a travelerâs guide to the perilous, wondrous land of sobriety. Scoblicâs scorched, sweet prose is the work of a writer at the top of her form.ââJennifer Finney Boylan, New York Times-bestselling author of Sheâs Not ThereÂ
âScoblicâs testament to life on the wagon is pertinent and raffish, marked by considerable candor and humor. A dryly witty, spirited memoir.ââKirkus Reviews
