TESTIMONIALS

PRAISE FOR ADDICTED TO THE ADDICTED

  • — Kirkus Reviews

    “Addiction wreaks havoc on the life of the addict, but as this memoir shows, it can also wreak havoc on the lives of the addict’s family… My son may not be a corpse, but for most of his life he’s been a drugged-out zombie… and for me, I have felt as though I am a living corpse as I chase after him.”

  • — John E. McCormac, Mayor, Woodbridge, NJ

    “Addicted to the Addicted should be required reading for people struggling with addiction or those in recovery, along with family and friends trying to help.”

  • — Gay Walley, author of The Venus As She Ages

    “A searing, sometimes funny, always moving account of a woman loving her son who is addicted to any and every substance… Her journey proves that love, in the end, is the only answer.”

  • — Suzanne Holmes

    “Marguerite brings a clear-eyed assessment of her lifelong struggle to set herself free… Her story is familiar to anyone touched by the scourge of addiction.”

  • — Jan Cairnes, Hanley Foundation

    “Marguerite Connelly rips open her soul… Her story encourages self-reflection and helps readers understand that they, too, can walk from heartbreak to hopeful.”
