Summary

Do you count down the minutes to wine o'clock on a daily basis? Is a bottle of Pinot Grigio your friend at the end of a long hard day? If you want to give up being controlled and defined by alcohol then now is the time to join The Sober Revolution. Fed up of living in a fog of hangovers, lethargy and guilt from too much wine? Have you tried to cut down without success? You are not alone. When it comes to alcohol, millions of people around the world find it hard to exercise moderation and become stuck in a vicious cycle of blame, guilt and using more alcohol as a way of coping.

The Sober Revolution looks at women and their relationships with alcohol, exploring the myths behind this socially acceptable, yet often destructive habit. Rather than continuing the sad spiral into addiction, it helps women regain control of their drinking and live happier, healthier lives.

Sarah Turner, cognitive behavioral therapist and addictions counsellor, and Lucy Rocca, founder of Soberistas.com, the popular social networking site for women who have successfully kicked the booze or would like to, give an insight into ways to find a route out of the world of wine. The Sober Revolution will open your eyes to the dangers of social drinking and give you the tools you need to have a happy life without the wine.

Listen to it now and call time on wine o'clock forever.

The sober revolution

Great book based on real evedknce and personal stories. Very motivating. One tiny gripe was the woman reading it can’t pronounce some words like anathema.

Ok but not brilliant

This was a reasonably good book but spoiled by the rushed narration. I had to rewind a number of times to catch what was being said. This also made it a bit manic in bits. I was also off put by the number of poorly pronounced words and the overuse of erstwhile and imbibe. The narrator should look up the pronunciation of convivial and various other words which made it very irritating to listen to. That said, I didn't return it which was a good sign and it had some good advice for someone trying to cut down rather than stop.

Great book.

Well worth listening to. highlights that alcohol really does us no favors & you better off without it. I love the analogy of alcohol being like a partner that is just no good for you but they are hard to give up.

Awful narrator

I couldn’t listen to this book very long as the narrators voice was unbearably posh.

Good content - poor narration

This is an honest and open book with some inspiring stories BUT the narration was both rushed and had lots of mis-pronunciations which detracted ‘com-poh-st’ to name just one. It’s a shame, it made the content seem less articulate / educate.
