"The Art Of Losing" By Lizzy Mason Is The Powerful Story Of How Much Life Can Change In The Course Of A Single Night

According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, approximately 15.1 million American adults and over 623,000 adolescents suffer from alcohol abuse disorder or addiction. It’s a serious problem that touches just about every corner of American life, and it is also at the heart of Lizzy Mason’s powerful debut, The Art of Losing. A compelling story about addiction, sisterhood, and loss, this young adult novel doesn’t hit shelves until Feb. 2019, but Bustle is thrilled to share a sneak peak of the cover and an exclusive excerpt from it below.
