Again, Rachel by Marian Keyes

 

 

Boy, talk about great writing!  It's years since I read her earlier book about Rachel (Rachel's Holiday) but that didn't matter.

 

Rachel has put her life back together after losing a baby and a husband.  She is even the head counsellor at the rehab clinic that she originally went to.

 

But events conspire to confront her with what actually happened rather than how she thought it had.  You go on a journey with her as she comes to grip with reality.

 

Marian Keyes really understands what makes an addict tick.

 

This book is in turns hilarious and gut wrenching.  Unmissable.
