"Many A True Word Hath Been Spoken In Jest" - William Shakespeare

Our satire begins with one sock in particular, Romeo. He's staying clean but living dirty. We open as he cries to himself in the mirror. He's caught between being honest and saving face.

What a great play/audiobook! Anyone who is in a 12-step program or has been to meetings before will recognize the character archetypes and get a laugh from "Sharing Like Shakespeare".

It's a quick read/listen and definitely pokes good-natured fun at the funny aspects of recovery, while also imparting Romeo's serious cautionary tale about the trap of being so "recovered" that he can't share where he's at.

I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because I thought the ending was a little abrupt and I wanted more closure or something. Overall, totally a great little play! I would love to see it performed with actual sock puppets, maybe as the Friday night entertainment at a convention! (Hint to any convention committee members who might be reading this review)

Cute, funny and true!

This was just awful. Not funny at all. It's not worth a dollar. Put your money in the basket instead.

Awful

I'm in recovery myself & believed this would be a laugh at some of the things shared in the rooms. It was a couple of laughs shared again & again & again. I get it - things are shared over & over but this was a waste of money. No real direction at all.
The book is misleading & last 2 chapters are misleading because they didn't exist.
I wish I could get my money & time back & I would gift it to someone in need instead of you people making money on this masquerading as comedy.
