NATIONAL INDIE EXCELLENCE AWARDS, FINALIST INDEPENDENT AUTHOR NETWORK BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARDS, FINALIST If you've ever struggled with love or addiction, you'll find humor and wisdom in this very human, true story of how we can use just about anything -booze, relationships, potato chips-to try to change the way we feel. Lynn Walker rebuilt her life, survived somehow her dad and his cocaine and his smuggling, but she still can't seem to find all the pages to life's instruction manual. With wit and insight, Lynn takes us on a journey, and what a wild ride it is! Trying not to drink vodka in a Russian castle. Trying not to drink anything in graduate school. Cocaine-addicted lab rats. Peeing next to a grizzly bear. Trudging through the wilderness of relationships in search of this thing called love. Brace yourself for this candid and darkly funny sequel to Lynn's award-winning book, Midnight Calling: A Memoir of a Drug Smuggler's Daughter.
