From Junkie to Judge: One Woman's Triumph Over Trauma and Addiction, by Mary Beth O'Connor, Mary Beth O'Connor

dark emotional hopeful inspiring reflective medium-paced

4.0

What a powerful story of recovery! As someone that has struggled with addiction(sober 7 years as of September 2022) this book is such a needed piece of work.

From Junkie to Judge is the perfect balance of showing the trauma of childhood, struggles with staying sober, and making a better life for yourself. 

Thank you to HighBridge Audio and NetGalley for allowing me to listen to this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
