Editorial Reviews:
"One of the best Drug Addiction books of all time"
- BookAuthority
"Dive right into chapter one to find yourself turning the pages almost as fast as your eyes can devour the contents. It's that good. This is a fine book by a really happy addict in recovery. Burgess has a wealth of good suggestions, common-sense and practical exercises and should be an inspiration to many who are now or will be in recovery from alcoholism or drug addiction (or both)."
- Addiction Treatment Magazine
"The Happy Addict shows different ways of thinking and being to have positivity and peace of mind in one's journey to sobriety. Beth’s book, by offering the keys to making the best of one's experiences, enables one in creating a better future by rearranging the past."
