?“The author’s unflinching self-awareness made this book stand out from others in the genre. The tone balances dark humor with accountability, which is hard to pull off but powerful when done well. . . . Schwartz’s journey showed me that growth can be slow, uncomfortable, and imperfect, and that made it meaningful.”—Readers’ Favorite, 5-star review “The best memoirs hold up a mirror not just to an author but also to a culture at large. I'll Try Anything Twice achieves both. It’s a story for anyone longing for connection in these disconnected times.”—Hope Edelman, New York Times best-selling author of Motherless Daughters and The Possibility of Everything “Through her energetic prose, insight, and humor, I’ll Try Anything Twice shines a light on how challenging it can be to admit the true nature of our afflictions . . . and the kind of bravery it takes to get honest and make a change. With tender writing and beautifully expressed love for the family and friends who stuck by her through her darkest moments, Schwartz has written an ode to perseverance, grace, and survival against all odds.”—Leslie Schwartz, author of The Lost Chapters “Raw, unflinching, and ultimately hopeful, I'll Try Anything Twice doesn’t romanticize addiction or recovery. With dark humor, brutal honesty, and the eye of a seasoned journalist, Schwartz chronicles the painstaking and important work of learning to love yourself, one day at a time.”—Sarah Levy, author of Drinking Games
