Synopsis

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 work day, 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 take down 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.

This book is a must read for anyone who drinks, even if alcohol isn't an issue in your life. Warrington offers fresh insights and questions into why we turn to alcohol in the first place, what role it plays in our lives and challenges us to get on board with the notion that we already have everythin......more

Goodreads review by Kaila on May 03, 2023

This resonated with me a bit more than Quit Like a Woman: The Radical Choice to Not Drink in a Culture Obsessed with Alcohol. It's geared towards the same audience but a bit less...in your face about it? I guess that's the difference between "sober sober" and "sober curious," as Ruby puts it. I felt......more

Goodreads review by Hailey on January 10, 2021

I was surprised and inspired by how Ruby connected being "sober curious" to activism. As someone trying to meditate more and sit in my own discomfort and fully feel, this book encouraged me to take a deeper dive into this way of life by being "sober curious", which also involves letting go of the st......more

Goodreads review by Jen on August 06, 2023

2.5 Stars- I found out about this book because it was referenced on a few podcasts I listened to. I like books that explain information about alcohol because as the older I get, I’m finding it harder to metabolize, sleep or feel healthy after having drinks. This book has a few good insights about ho......more
