Hey, Good Luck Out There by Georgia Toews is an incredible Canadian read following a woman going through rehab and her eventual post-rehab struggles.
Bobbi, our twenty-two year old lead, is a strong but vulnerable protagonist. Her story brings up real social issues of women (and people in general) who experience very real struggles. What happens when you go to rehab and get out? How do you stay sober? How do you manage to keep a job, keep friends, find a place to live, etc.? How do you fit in with the people that just don't understand? Are you fated to forever just have a label?
Georgia Toews' story is breathtaking, heartbreaking, and sophisticated. I truly enjoyed it and recommend you pick it up.
And, like the title says dear readers… "Hey, Good Luck Out There!"
Five out of five. Give it seven if you want.
