5.0 out of 5 stars Life after Alcohol, May 13, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: LAST CALL FOR ALCOHOL: Healing a Marriage Harmed by Alcohol Abuse (Paperback)

Susan Erling Martinez's book, Last Call for Alcohol, shares a raw and painful account of life with an alcoholic. It took great courage to pen such an experience so that others can see that they are not alone. She helps the reader to see that there is still hope, there is recovery, there is healing, and there is life after alcohol's last call. Includes several great suggestions for the alcohol-free afterlife. I love happy endings.

5.0 out of 5 stars WOW!, May 9, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: LAST CALL FOR ALCOHOL: Healing a Marriage Harmed by Alcohol Abuse (Paperback)

WOW! Thank you for finally offering something I can really relate to! This book is an honest, real-life look at alcoholism in relationships if I've ever read one. It's like you're having a conversation with your best friend. It's entertaining as much as it's thought-provoking. I love how the author really speaks to you as if she knows you. It's given me much to think about and I've already noticed positive changes in how I approach life and those I care about because of it. THANK YOU!!

3.0 out of 5 stars A good story, but not what I was looking for, September 19, 2007

This review is from: LAST CALL FOR ALCOHOL: Healing a Marriage Harmed by Alcohol Abuse (Paperback)

This book is an excellent story of one couple's struggle with alcoholism, however, I did not get what I was looking for. The book just did not relate to me at all. There is some good advice and encouraging words. It is good to know that we are not alone. This addiction is REAL.
