Smacked (Eilene Zimmerman)

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Eilene Zimmerman has shared with us the pain, the grief, and the questions she has had surrounding drug addiction in our contemporary culture. Losing her ex-husband, the father of her two children in such an untimely manner, Eilene sets forth to examine exactly what may have driven this brilliant, highly successful attorney to his addiction, and why that may have occurred.

This book is compelling from the very beginning, and is divided into meaningful sections. Eileen's writing is easy to read, and full of emotion and relevant research. I highly recommend this memoir to those who have been affected by the drug abuse of loved ones, as well as those who are attempting to steer their families away from possible triggers and gateways.

Thank you, NetGalley for allowing me to read and review this book.
