What members read between meetings
A.A.'s own literature does most of the heavy lifting between meetings in South Carolina. These are the books most often spotted on a member's bookshelf, with a short note on what each one is for. Each card is tagged with its language.
The book Bill W. and Dr. Bob wrote first, in 1939. Most members pick up a copy in their first week or two and keep it close.
Look on AmazonBill W.'s longer essays on each Step and each Tradition. The usual companion read once the Big Book starts to feel familiar.
Look on AmazonLiving Sober
EnglishA short, practical book about the day-to-day of staying sober. Often the one a sponsor suggests in the first month.
Look on AmazonDaily Reflections

Look on AmazonAs Bill Sees It
