Clare Pooley is a Cambridge graduate and was a Managing Partner at one of the world's biggest advertising agencies; and yet by eighteen months ago she'd become an overweight; depressed; middle-aged mother of three who was drinking more than a bottle of wine a day; and spending her evenings Googling 'Am I an alcoholic?'


In a desperate bid to turn her life around; she quit drinking and started a blog. She called it Mummy Was a Secret Drinker.


This book is the story of a year in Clare's life. A year that started with her quitting booze having been drinking more than a bottle of wine every day. It sees her starting a hugely successful blog; then getting and beating breast cancer. By the end of the year she is booze free and cancer free; two stone lighter and with a life that is so much richer; healthier and more rewarding than ever before. Sober Diaries is an upbeat; funny and positive look at how to live life to the full.


Interwoven within Clare's own very personal and frank story is research and advice; and answers to questions like: How do I know if I'm drinking too much? How will I cope at parties? What do I say to friends and family? How do I cope with cravings? Will I lose weight? What if my partner still drinks? And many more.
