I enjoyed her writing style - personal experiences mixed with well researched facts and science surrounding addiction

Fans of Caitlin Moran will likely enjoy Jenny Valentish's cheeky, realistic voice throughout as she recounts her turbulent relationship (past and present) with alcohol and other substances. For the first half I tried to decide what Valentish's goal was, to tell her story or to use her story to support the statistics & studies (& the indecent lack of female inclusion in drug research) she'd include in each chapter, but I ended up appreciating this.
