This tagged book is another book I need to read because someone recommended this book a long time ago in a narcissistic abuse support group I‘m in on Facebook. I‘ve heard good things about this one. I just added it to my Goodreads TBR. I‘ll read it eventually.

This book is quite intricate, blending elements of a memoir, an analysis of authors grappling with addiction, and an exploration of substance abuse treatment. Her memoir was particularly captivating and the most engaging aspect of the book for me. She also included stories of individuals she encountered during their recovery journey.

Surprise! Surprise! I am a bibliophile Clinical Psychologist, starting a Bibliotherapy group with some of my clients, reading and discussing this book them. How fitting for the #mentalhealth prompt today. #Julyjazz

A soft pick, but still a fun ride. I enjoy the concept of assassins (not serial killers) going through a 12 step program to help them stop killing as a lifestyle. It does add a dangerous element to the step where you make amends since most of those people have vowed to kill you.

The ending felt very unsatisfying. The whole book I felt like the ending was going to involve divorce, but the ending didn‘t even involve a proper ending or closure. This book is funny in the way of a Troost book, but it had a much darker tone because, ultimately, this is his addiction and recovery memoir. It‘s actually heartbreaking in some ways, and it‘s hard to put my finger on exactly why.

GingerAntics I honestly wish there was one more Troost book after this one (this is the last he published), just to have that happy, goofy, inquisitive feeling of the first two books in this trilogy, and to know how things turned out. #JMaartenTroost #HeadhunstersOnMyDoorstep #addiction #recovery #alcoholism #audiobook 4mo
GingerAntics @5feet.of.fury yes, very different tone to the first two. I have mixed feelings here. The ending was almost just “well, the deadline is in five minutes and I have to attach it to the email first.” Did that happen in his little one bedroom or efficiency apartment or at home with his wife and children? Who knows? We may never know. I really hope it‘s the latter. 4mo

5feet.of.fury @GingerAntics yeah he seems to have fallen off the map entirely after this (&there was@supposed to be another book) The opening of this book is amazing. His wife was such a trooper too (hiking on remote islands heavily pregnant, etc) so you just know he was putting her through it. 4mo
GingerAntics @5feet.of.fury I love how she said if he ever drank again she‘d make him a eunuch. 🤣😂🤣 that makes me think she probably didn‘t divorce him… but then he ran away from home. I don‘t know. Last updated bio I saw say he lived with his wife and 2 sons in California. 4mo
Bookwormjillk I wish there was another book too. I enjoyed these. 4mo
