A brutally honest (and surprisingly funny) memoir about addiction, recovery, and turning a wreck of a teenage life into something badass. From the Philadelphia streets to the Ivy League, Tracy Viola proves it’s not about where you start—it’s about how hard you fight to finish. This is not your typical recovery story. It's raw, real, R-rated, and full of 80s/90s vibes. No sugarcoating. No hand-holding. Just true stories, hard-earned wisdom, and lessons you'll actually want to incorporate immediately.

For teens (16+), families, people in recovery—or anyone who loves a comeback story with bite. 

“A tale of grit told with brutal honesty and a hefty dose of humor by the woman who lived it.”
— Angela Duckworth, author of Grit
