What others are saying about Beyond Recovery:

"Couldn't put it down!"

"I highly recommend this book!! I would recommend this book if someone is struggling with addiction. It is a raw memoir of someone’s struggle with addiction and alcoholism. I could not put it down. I literally read it in 2 days. I could relate to being in recovery myself. The feeling of inadequacy and failure plagued me until I found AA." -MB

"A must read for those in or affected by addiction." - EC

"I recommend this book wholeheartedly. The author takes us on an examination of childhood, addiction, love, and forgiveness, and shares tools gained along the way, including the light of acceptance. The story is entertaining, wise, and illuminating. A good read for anyone looking to be free of past pain and resentment."

"An inspiring, courageous, and heartfelt message of hope for those who still struggle with addiction."

"Great story of personal triumph...
I read this book in two days and couldn't put it down! Such a journey of physical and emotional pain to forgiveness and finding love within himself and his life purpose.

"Beyond Recovery receives an A+
A friend told me that She was reading Beyond Recovery and she could not put it down. I was a little skeptical but followed her recommendation. I absolutely delighted that I did. It's not only a great, albeit at times, heartbreaking story of the author's experience as a child being introduced to drugs and alcohol too early in life and his subsequent trouble with addiction, his road to recovery, and the ultimate purpose he has found in serving others. He is a fabulous storyteller and an excellent writer. The reader is offered an intimate peek into his childhood adolescence and early adulthood. I highly recommend this book to anyone struggling with any kind of addiction. The book is a testament not only to the author's powerful journey but to the power of getting and staying clean and sober." - L
