The CoDA World Fellowship does not endorse any outside literature (non-CoDA approved). The following books, while not CoDA-approved, are books that are frequently used in a program of CoDA recovery and are considered by many members to be highly compatible with CoDA's principles and traditions:
"Codependent No More" by Melody Beattie
"Beyond Codependency" by Melody Beattie
"The Language of Letting Go" (a daily meditation book) by Melody Beattie
"Facing Codependence" by Pia Mellody
"Women Who Love Too Much" by Robin Norwood
The CoDA World Fellowship discourages but does allow CoDA groups to use books like these within the structure of a CoDA meeting if there is a Group Conscience vote approving the use of the book in the meeting.
