 Al-Anon - One Day at a Time
This is an excellent daily guide to living a peaceful life. The daily readings inspire deep reflection and contemplation. They are thoughtful as well as instructive. For those who live with inner and/or outer turmoil, the readings are like an oasis of hopefulness, serenity and stillness that can be used as a helpful spiritual guide for each day.

 Focused on the wives of alcoholics ( beatnikchik )
I agree with the reviewer who found this book a little harsh. The advice is "old school" al-anon -- focused on the wife of an AA member. It's all about becoming more agreeable, not arguing with him, not complaining when he spends all his time in AA. If you are an adult child of an alcoholic, there is precious little advice for you here. You might want to check out HOPE FOR TODAY or COURAGE TO CHANGE.

 A Little Harsh ( kim_lebouton )
I find this meditation book a little harsh, although there are some strong insights. I prefer the other Al-Anon mediation books: Courage to Change: 1 Day at a Time in Al-Anon II or Hope for Today. Both of these newer books provide similar insights with a much kinder voice. If you are dealing with active addiction in your life, these books will help, even if you decide not to attend Al-Anon. Remember the three C's: "I didn't cause it; I can't control it; I can't cure it." (Paths to Recovery: Al-Anon's Steps, Traditions and Concepts, p. 14)
