Kirkus Review
This memoir by an anonymous debut author recounts the damage that her now-ex-husband’s alcoholism did to her and their son.
“I am a writer,” the author says up front. “Mostly I write a lot of lists, checks, and cutting emails that I never send; but they’re decisively pointed and crushing, I assure you.” Her narrative about her troubled relationship with her ex is filled with her appropriate frustration and rage—a full-on cathartic explosion that simultaneously details the hits that kept on coming and her resolve to rebuild and persevere. Foreclosure, bankruptcy, and nonexistent court-ordered child support payments, she says, were merely the surface damage inflicted by her ex-husband. More distressing, she asserts, was the psychological damage, especially to her young son, who learned too early that disappointment defined his relationship with his father. She now has full custody of their 9-year-old son, following her ex’s numerous DWIs, several stints in rehab, lost jobs, and refusal to admit he had a problem. Still, her child is beginning to thrive, and she sees a path ahead “We need to do enough and love enough and live enough to make the most of the moments we have.” It should be stated from the get-go that if readers find constant rough language offensive, this book will not suit them; to say it’s salty doesn’t do it justice. But it’s also funny, irreverent, and creatively ironic. The author, who introduces herself as “Sherry,” isn’t only a special education teacher at a New Jersey middle school; she’s also a bartender, and she effectively brings skills from both careers to this memoir. Each chapter begins with a recommended alcoholic beverage to be “paired” with the chapter subject, complete with a recipe. “A child’s suffering is the single most heart-wrenching experience a parent can endure,” Sherry tells readers in the chapter titled “Happy Hour” (suggested pairing “Pitcher of Pink Sangria”).
Not for everyone, but a surprisingly satisfying and ultimately optimistic remembrance.

A must read for anyone who has experienced alcoholism/drug addiction that just invades without warning, destroying lives and families. Masterfully written book based on the Authors experience dealing with an alcoholic husband and father to their son. Her #1 job in life is mother & father to a boy who has experienced a lot of disappointment and loss in his short life. Special Ed teacher by day, Bartender in the evening, the Author dealt with all the hurt, hatred, resentment and chaos he's caused her, by writing a from the heart, (at times peppered with an occasional expletive), you really feel the true emotions of the moment. Cleverly, she starts each chapter pairing it with a cocktail. A truly amazing and unique read. Kudos for the Author for her brutally honest account of her life experiences while sprinkling in some humor and a cocktail! I applaud the Author for her superior literary skills and for sharing her very personal and painful story.Product details

An Alcoholic Anonymous Ex edition by Sherry Wine Marco Serido Health Fitness Dieting eBooks Reviews
Great look into what alcoholism does to family, and how strong one woman can be for her son,raw and unfiltered
Written with total true gut felt emotion, must have been extremely difficult to recall incidents and their effects in such detail!
This is an eye opener showing impacts on the innocent and the denial of the sick spouse.
Kudos to Sherry Wine!
I finished this book in 1 night. I couldn't put it down! Author is witty as f$&#! I hope there is a sequel! sounds to me like the ex is a man-child and is bailed out to often by Mom and Dad. I guess some people just don't have a rock bottom.
Insightful and although not a "self-help" book, gives self awareness....well, at least for me.
no
Many people live their life and tell stories, some even in books. Very few, open up their hearts and relive it..true to themselves and completely raw. This book encompasses truth, love, loss, frustration, growth, tears, laughter and above all a deep love between a mother and child that will never be compromised. I admire this author and look forward to what the future holds.
Went to thew mailbox this morning and discovered my copy had finally arrived. I opened the package while standing in my garage and started to flip through the chapters... I have been waiting for this book by Sherry Wine to come for some time. As I find myself mesmerized by the play on words, and the sad truth that the writer had to go through all this in order for this book to be written. After a few minutes of reading, I realized I am standing in my garage and it is freezing out. I guess this book has that effect on you, you get lost. It's a definite must read. Pick up a copy today!
