Drunk-ish

“Wilder-Taylor’s inimitable ability to latch onto humor even in the darkest of times is most refreshing. A perfect balance of bold honesty and riotous wit takes the edge off her culpability as she faces startling truths enroute to accepting the empowerment of sobriety.” —Shelf Awareness“[A] vivid, self-skewering portrait of alcoholic delusion and dysfunction…[DRUNK-ISH is] funny, neurotic, and woozily uplifting.” —Publishers Weekly“Drunk-ish [is] a brave, entertaining book, with much to say about living in our times … told with wit, intelligence, and engaging honesty.” —Kirkus Reviews“Honest, funny, tender…a roller coaster of a book. You will love this candid and funny memoir even if you’re not sober. Trust me.” —Jenny Lawson, New York Times bestselling author of Let’s Pretend this Never Happened “Currently sober, pregnant, and working from home, reading Drunk-ish felt like a warning and a memory at the same time. Any alcoholic will recognize themselves in Stephanie’s story, but so will any parent who loves parenting, and any parent who secretly worries they might hate it. This book is honest in a way that’s scary, funny and exciting—like having a therapist who’s way too good at their job.” —Rosebud Baker, standup comic and Saturday Night Live writer “From the fog of her youthful indiscretions to the trick mirror of mommy wine culture, Wilder-Taylor is relentlessly and often hilariously self-scrutinizing. But even as she states difficult truths, the heart of her story is one of enduring forgiveness.” — Meghan Daum, author of The Problem With Everything“I expected Stefanie’s account of her love affair with drinking, and subsequent sobriety, to be laugh-out-loud hilarious and eye-opening.  I didn’t expect it to also be incredibly poignant and intimate. Drunk-ish blew me away. You’ll want to turn to the person next to you and read passages aloud (I did). It’s clever, vulnerable, and real.” —Laura Cathcart Robbins, author of Stash“Drunk-ish is raw, hilarious and intoxicating. We ride the waves of self-revelation much as one would a sugar-high–with wild, rollicking glee and the unavoidable crash into a sober and ultimately more gratifying life.” —Melissa Bond, author of Blood Orange Night
