Counting Daisies by Nicola Haken
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
As I unfurl from the emotional turmoil swirling inside me I begin to count the many ways this book made me feel:
One: Innocence-the joy and beauty of young friendship and love
Two: Pain – the pure heart wrenching pain of addiction
Three: Fear- the fear of reaching out for help, the fear of helping and the fear of failing
Four: Hope – After a few stumbles, finally finding hope
Five: Love – not only the feeling of love but the power of love- love for another human being and the damn f-ing love of a f-ing drug. It’s all there in this amazing book. Nothing is held back.
This author continues to use her words to take me to places that are incredibly difficult, moving and meaningful but she does it in a way that I know I can do it because she’ll be there to catch me when it’s all over and I’ll be a better person for having gone through it.

Am I a reader? Absolutely - it's my passion, my escape, my joy
Am I a writer? Without a doubt. The characters in my head are constantly demanding that their story be told.
But above all that - I am a human being. My passion for people is unparalleled, my firm belief in Love is Love unwavering, my hope that all can be accepted, undying. I do not write because I want to, I do it because I have to. I write because these voices, these beautiful men, have chosen me to tell their stories – and how damn lucky am I for that?
