Publisher's Summary

Would life be better without alcohol?

It’s the nagging question more and more of us are finding harder to ignore, whether we have a “problem” with alcohol or not. After all, we yoga. We green juice. We meditate. We self-care. And yet, come the end of a long workday, the start of a weekend, an awkward social situation, we drink. One glass of wine turns into two turns into a bottle. In the face of how we care for ourselves otherwise, it’s hard to avoid how alcohol really makes us feel: terrible.

How different would our lives be if we stopped drinking on autopilot? If we stopped drinking altogether? Really different, it turns out. Really better. Frank, funny, and always judgment-free, Sober Curious is a bold guide to choosing to live hangover-free, from Ruby Warrington, one of the leading voices of the new sobriety movement.

Drawing on research, expert interviews, and personal narrative, Sober Curious is a radical takedown of the myths that keep so many of us drinking. Inspiring, timely, and blame-free, Sober Curious is both conversation starter and handbook - essential information that empowers listeners to transform their relationship with alcohol so we can lead our most fulfilling lives.

Ruby is everyone’s gal pal

Love the book, Ruby is so relatable. I don’t know where my sober curious journey will go but I feel equipped with information and motivation to embark on the journey nonetheless. Thank you! Highly recommend.

Super informative, inspirational and entertaining

I read Material Girl, Mystical World by the same author and had to check this one out. I have been “sober curious” for awhile now and have friends in AA. I’ve been to AA before but never felt like it was a good fit as my rock bottom was nothing like the people’s whose stories I had heard in AA. This book is exactly what I needed and I’m relieved that the Sober Curious movement is happening! It’s a great time to be alive!

Exactly what I’m looking for

Love the content of this book, I will admit that I still think I prefer an actual book over the audio format, but the author did a tremendous job in her reading and again, the content is exactly what I’m wanting. So good that I may end up purchasing the kindle format as well. Highly recommend for anyone who is questioning their drinking habits for any reason. Must read!

Not for me.

Very repetitive. Badly wrote. Neither interesting, nor engaging. Author appears to be fresh out of the alcoholism still bragging about how glamorous it was when she enjoyed it. Yet she refuses to call herself an alcoholic.
Sober curious, is just an another fancy name for being an abstinent. And I could not understand her bringing her skin colour over, and over again, completely not relevant.
In short, it was not a book for me.
