โTriumphant, moving, and wildly entertaining. This is an unabashed and completely relatable account of getting clean and getting a life.โโSteve 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 Iโd drink if Hunter S. Thompson wanted to get wasted with me . . . these are my fantasies lately.ย 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 worldโand how she discovered that nothing is as odd and fantastic as life without a drink in hand. . .
โA 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.โโEmma McLaughlin and Nicola Kraus, #1 New York Times-bestselling coauthors of The Nanny Diaries
โHilarious and heartbreaking,ย Unwastedย is a travelerโs guide to the perilous, wondrous land of sobriety. Scoblicโs scorched, sweet prose is the work of a writer at the top of her form.โโJennifer Finney Boylan, New York Times-bestselling author ofย Sheโs Not Thereย
โScoblicโs testament to life on the wagon is pertinent and raffish, marked by considerable candor and humor. A dryly witty, spirited memoir.โโKirkus Reviews
