Are you or is someone you love struggling with addiction or alcoholism? Do you want to make a big - and lasting - life change but don't know where to start?
My name is Tracy. I'm a recovering addict and alcoholic. Pretty Wrecked is my story about how I got and stayed sober.
A tale of grit told with brutal honesty and a hefty dose of humor by the woman who lived it. Angela Duckworth, author of Grit, Professor, University of Pennsylvania
Marred by emotional turmoil and addiction's grip, can Tracy rise up to mend the shattered pieces of her life and soul? Journey from cold city streets to the Ivy League, where Tracy proves it doesn't matter where you start ... it matters where you finish.
In this engrossing and unexpectedly funny debut memoir, Tracy Viola's journey unfolds - from the darkest depths of teenage abuse and addiction to the heights of personal and professional success. Her brave narrative, skillfully blending laughter and tears, paints a vivid picture of metamorphosis as it reveals the enduring beauty that can emerge from life's darkest moments.
Written in a series of vignettes with 80s and 90s nostalgia throughout, Tracy's experiences shed light on the hard-learned lessons of addiction and recovery.
Marked by scars and illuminated by triumphs, this is a gripping read for anyone who has faced adversity, dared to hope, and believes in the boundless power of redemption.
