Advance Praise
"This book was fantastic. It depicted down to a tee what it is like to be a high schooler on summer vacation. Anybody could read this book and see themselves in Cait and her friends. I know I did. Even though this is most likely a work of fiction, it had elements of truth behind it and that is this books biggest strength. Inebriated is a one of kind book that everybody should read. It has well written teenagers, a great, albeit heartbreaking plot and a main character that you will absolutely fall in love with." - YA Book Central
"This is a wonderfully written, emotional story with some real gut-wrenching moments. The characters were well portrayed and I was fully invested in each of their lives. Adrien and Caitlyn are both characters that are haunted by their pasts, but the way they attack life is so different. It's heart-wrenching and eye-opening going on this journey with them. Their story is one I'll remember for some time to come and one that has definitely made a lasting impression." - K&M Sultry Reads
"What a powerful and gripping story! This was a wonderful debut novel, well done Katey! I was hooked from the very first chapter. Inebriated is a great young adult novel that sheds light on the realities of partying and drinking and all of the unfortunate repercussions that can come with it." - EmilyReads a Goodreads User
"I think the author did a wonderful job at bringing important issues to light all the while adding a bit of romance to the thick plot (when I say thick I am talking about the heavy topics). While it's clear to readers that the two have a toxic relationship I think many can remember what it felt like to be young, in love, and causing trouble. In any event, I think this is a fantastic debut novel." - Elle's Book Blog

Inebriated was a wild ride that was filled with so much emotion. I read this book in one sitting and got so invested in the story. The author manages to capture so many raw emotions in this book and I was able to relate to so many choices Cait made throughout the book and the way substances can affect us. It was raw and emotional and makes the reader think. Its an eye opening story that I hope can showcase some of the outcomes our choices have on other people and ourselves to many young adults and teens out there.

All the feels!!!! OMG!!!
Maybe I'm being a bit lenient on the believable factor, but I absolutely loved this story.
I was completely sucked in from the first page and devoured it.
This book brought me back to my teenage years and I was able to relate to how these girls were feeling. Obviously, I was not allowed the freedom that they were, but it made me remember the pressures : Sex, drugs, alcohol.... and how tricky those situations were to navigate.
I am still thinking about the book and the outcomes even after finishing it. I am looking forward to picking up the sequel and seeing how Cait is doing now.
A special thank you to NetGalley, Amazon, and Katey Taylor for providing me with and ARC.
