Marian Keyes

Rachel Walsh, a woman with a penchant for recreational drugs, finds herself reluctantly checking into Cloisters, a Dublin rehabilitation center, which she views more as a holiday destination than a place for recovery. Expecting luxury and celebrity encounters, Rachel is instead confronted with the harsh realities of detox, embarrassing family interventions, and the unexpected pangs of missing her ex-boyfriend. This novel hilariously and poignantly explores themes of addiction, family dynamics, and the difficult journey toward self-discovery and healing, all delivered with Marian Keyes' signature blend of sharp wit and heartfelt empathy.
