Product Description

Product Description

"Rachel's Holiday", Marian's classic novel about addiction, is being given a new lease of life with a fantastic new jacket treatment. Here's Rachel Walsh, twenty-seven and the miserable owner of size 8 feet. She has regular congress with Luke Costello, a man who wears his leather trousers tight. And she's fond - some might say too fond - of recreational drugs. Until she finds herself being frogmarched to the Cloisters - Dublin's answer to the Betty Ford Clinic. She's outraged. Surely she's not thin enough to be an addict? Heartsick and Luke-sick, she seeks redemption in the shape of Chris, a Man with a Past. A man who might be more trouble than he's worth.

5.0 out of 5 stars Addiction At It's Best, Nov 28 2006
By Cash (Manitoba) - See all my reviews
This, like all her other books is a great read. I laughed out loud and at the same time my heart ached for Rachel. It's one of those books you will re-read again and again. A must read especially for anyone who works in the addiction field or has been to treatment. I recommend it to all my clients, co-workers and friends.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Book!!, Jun 10 2005
By A Customer
This is the second book of Keyes' that I read (after Watermelon) and it was absolutely fantastic. Way better than I was expecting after being disapointed by Watermelon. The story of Rachel and her drug addiction is real-life, inspiring, hilarious and heartwarming. I could not put this book down! It was also the icing on top of the cake to realize that Rachel is part of the same family (the Walshes) as Claire in Watermelon (and as I later found out, Maggie in Angels). Its really neat to hear of updates on the other members of the crazy Walsh family! While Rachel's Holiday is an easy read, it is also completely different from your usual girly "lay-on-the-beach" read. It tackles a completely different topic but still manages to be funny and gripping! I totally LOVED this book!!!!!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars I can't put it down, Oct 21 2004
By A Customer
This is a great book, but unfortunately I have a hard time putting it down! The story of Rachel is just wonderful as she battles drug addiction, beginning with denying there is a problem at all. She goes to a treatment facility and as the story unfolds she begins to admit she has a problem and reflects on her life. The chemistry between Rachel and Luke is just so well written you can feel it. Not all the characters are very likeable, but that is real life too. I would love to read more about Rachel. Great book.
