Sharp, chaotic, and full of hope.
I saw myself in every page.
Lottie Penrose isn't doing fine - though she's very good at pretending she is. Her mornings start glued to the sofa, her days blur with missed calls and mascara-smudged apologies, and her evenings end in supermarket wine and jokes that cover more than they reveal.
Her best friend Jess sees it long before she does. The lunches where the wine comes too quickly, the flat that smells of lavender spray and excuses, the night she disappears into the kind of silence even friendship can't fill. But when Lottie finally reaches the moment she can't outrun - the quiet, terrifying truth that she's losing herself - she takes the smallest step she can manage: she asks for help. What follows isn't tidy. Or pretty. Or quick. It's day-three panic, group-therapy biscuits, sober bowling, emotional Wotsits in a car park, and learning to dance in her kitchen without a drink in her hand. As her world cracks and reshapes, Lottie must face the one question she's avoided for years: Can she rebuild a life she actually wants - and can she do it sober? Last Round at Lottie's is a warm, witty, and unfiltered look at addiction, friendship, and the tiny, defiant joys that make starting over possible. This book ends at the beginning. It's the first honest step.Also from
