Her deep insight into the subtle psychologies of drinking and of life means that everything she writes is both utterly relatable and stretches our minds. Hers is a rare wisdom.' - Dr Richard Piper CEO Alcohol Change UK

'Stone cold sober.'

Sounds horrible doesn't it? Hard icy. Brrrrr. No bloody ta.

However as the millions who choose to stay sober now know the propaganda around drinking and sobriety is wonky. Sober doesn't feel stony or cold.

Retired wreckhead Catherine Gray author of surprise bestseller The Unexpected Joy of Being Sober is now in her eighth sober year and has learnt a damn sight more.

This hotly anticipated sequel enlists the help of experts and case studies turning a curious playful gaze onto provocative questions. Is alcohol a parenting aid? Why are booze and cocaine such a horse and carriage? Once an addict always an addict? How do you feel safe - from alcohol others and yourself - in sobriety?

Whether you're a dedicated boozehound flirting with teetotalling or already sober this witty gritty read may just change how you think about alcohol forever.
