Summary
In this unflinchingly honest and hilarious memoir, a woman discovers that her best life is a sober one.

For Sarah Hepola, drinking felt like freedom; part of her birthright as a twenty-first-century woman. But there was a price–she often blacked out, having no memory of the lost hours. On the outside, her career was flourishing, but inside, her spirit was diminishing. She could no longer avoid the truth–she needed help. 

Blackout is the story of a woman stumbling into a new kind of adventure–sobriety. Sarah Hepola's tale will resonate with anyone who has had to face the reality of addiction and the struggle to put down the bottle. At first it seemed like a sacrifice–but in the end, it was all worth it to get her life back

Best book yet about suffering through alcoholism as a woman. So insightful and relatable and so many good quotes…too many to count. This really hit home with me and reminded me why I’m sober and how getting sober saved my life. A huge thank you to the author and great narrator.

It was insightful but annoying and hard to empathize with. The author gives off dry drunk vibes. We get it, you like attention and sympathy. it's like she wasn't telling a story but complaining the entire time.

Fantastic... Raw... Beautiful. As a woman in recovery, I find this book so relatable. Right up there with Caroline Knapp and Mary Kate.
