The Thirteenth Step

by Frances
(This book will give you hope and gratitude.)

I am a grateful recovering alcoholic. This book is a story about a professional woman who secretly has an alcohol problem. She grew up in a dysfunctional family and was raised by two alcoholics. Her adult years are full of black-outs, marriages, children, drinking, partying and finally to `rock bottom``. This professional woman is arrested and spends the night in jail. The following months are spent in detox, rehabs and AA. Her journey leads her to seek more spiritual measures then AA alone. She uses seven spiritual principles to overcome her addiction and change her life. It is a very heartfelt book and I learned alot from it - strength, hope, vulnerability and acceptance.
