Kathleen Glasgow

Bella is at breaking point. Everyone in her life needs something from her, and there's only one thing that dulls the pain. Alcohol smooths the sharp edges and makes things so much easier. When Bella drinks, she doesn't feel heartbroken over her ex. Or caught in the middle of her parents' divorce. Or overcome with grief for her grandmother. But one night changes everything. When she awakes in hospital with no memory of what happened, it's time to face reality. And for Bella, that means rehab and the bumpy road to recovery.

౨ৎ | “it’s kind of funny to occupy a body that you actively avoid looking at.”

if i ever need to cry i just crack open a kathleen glasgow book. i can admit, this was slow paced but about 40% in i was hooked. i just want to protect belle, wrap her in bubble wrap and tell her it will be okay. im sad and im mad that she had no one except a handful of people in her corner. she deserves better. 

i loved (most) of these characters and i wish we had gotten an epilogue, but when do we ever?

This book is so important. It made me realise a lot. I'm so grateful do the fact that it didnt just end with rehab but showed after. It didnt have that cliche happy ending and showed the hardships but also how Its possible that there is a happy end.
