"''Tadhg has mastered the skill of making the difficult shit that us humans deal with in life accessible, through a beautiful irreverent cocktail of vulnerability, hilarity, emotional intelligence and charm'' - Niall Breslin, aka Bressie ''An amazing story of addiction and redemption'' - Paul Howard ''Hickey's memoir is self-deprecating and well-paced, but the liveliness is a smokescreen for his more serious intent. However familiar the addiction arc, Hickey's candour could actually really help people, especially those noticing the ""craic"" mutating into something decidedly less fun'' - Irish Times ''[A] memoir of catastrophe and eventual triumph'' - Independent Westmeath ''Tadhg Hickey has really put his heart and soul into this memoir of catastrophe and eventual triumph, and I hope it sells and sells. If nothing else, it's an inspiration to anyone who may be having similar problems'' - Anne Cunningham"
