Loving Sobriety lives up to its name it offers exactly that."
"This is truly a great read for anyone who has been in and around addiction.
I would recommend it to families and friend of addicts just to read these words, to help them get a better understanding of how addiction affects people in different ways.
I could resonate with so many stories and behaviours and I cringe just thinking about some of then ways I behaved to feed my addiction. The lies and deceit just become part of who you are and it horrifying.
I can't believe it took me so long to find this book, as I have read most on addiction and recovery, but I'm really glad I did.
The author has put his heart and sole into this and although my path to recovery has been slightly different and I have different views on some things, I really enjoyed the book and can agree with him that there is no one way to recover but there are some pretty good suggestions out there."

Whether you think you might have a problem with alcohol or drugs, know that you are an addict or alcoholic, or firmly committed on the path of recovery, you should find a lot in this book to identify with as well as some new insights. In addition, RJ Boots gives a great summary in plain English of the 12 Steps.
I definitely benefited in Boots' sharing his strength, hope, and experience in this book... and I will be sharing it with the men I work with in recovery on a regular basis."
"I appreciate the authors transparency and down to earth writing ability as he displays his life story. It's hard to admit our mistakes but this book makes it seem okay to admit, as we learn from them. Lots of hard life lessons learned in the book with a happy ending."
