A Happier Hour by Rebecca Weller

A Happier Hour by Rebecca Weller

When Rebecca Weller's pounding, dehydrated head woke her at 3am, yet again, she stared at the ceiling, wondering why the hell she kept doing this to herself.

At 39 years of age - and a Health Coach, no less - she knew better than to down several bottles of wine per week. Her increasingly dysfunctional relationship with alcohol had to stop, but after decades of social drinking, she was terrified of what that might mean.

How could she live a joyful existence, without alcohol? How would she relax, socialise, or celebrate - without wine?

In sheer frustration, on a morning filled with regret and tears, she embarks on a 3-month sobriety experiment that becomes a quest for self-discovery, and ultimately, transforms her entire world.

A Happier Hour is a memoir that moves beyond addiction, giving a behind-the-scenes look into what it takes to get (and stay) sober in a culture that celebrates alcohol.

A heartfelt, moving, and inspiring story for anyone who has ever had to give up something they loved in order to get what they truly wanted.

Growing up in southwestern Ontario, Rebecca Weller could always find adventure for her wild imagination. Spending hours conjuring characters and worlds to keep herself occupied, at some point she realized she could bring these characters to life by putting them on the page. When she was young she used her creativity to entertain her brother, parents, and friends, and then later her husband and two children. Taking the ordinary world we live in and twisting it to contain a fantastical element has always appealed to Rebecca, and Hleo delves deeply into this concept. Hleo is Rebecca's first book available to the public, and was penned with great time and care. Enjoy!
