About this book

Blackout Girl: Growing Up and Drying Out in America by Storm, Jennifer. paperback edition. ISBN: 9781592854684.

Jennifer Storms Blackout Girl is a cant-tear-yourself-away look at teenage addiction and redemption. At age six, Jennifer Storm was stealing sips of her mothers cocktails. By age 13, she was binge drinking and well on her way to regular cocaine and LSD use. Her young life was awash in alcohol, drugs, and the trauma of rape. She anesthetized herself to many of the harsh realities of her young life--including her own misunderstandings about her sexual orientation--, which made her even more vulnerable to victimization. Blackout Girl is Storms tender and gritty memoir, revealing the depths of her addiction and her eventual path to a life of accomplishment and joy.
