Preview Unwifeable: A Memoir
PRAISE FOR Unwifeable “Genius.” —Artie Lange, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Too Fat to Fish “I loved reading Unwifeable. A fascinating kind of chaos with the realization of addiction, and then recovery. What stood out to me most was Mandy Stadtmiller’s optimism all the way through.” —Fred Armisen, creator and star of Portlandia “Brilliant.” —Jon Ronson, New York Times bestselling author of So You’ve Been Publicly Shamed “So rewarding.” —Charlaine Harris, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Sookie Stackhouse series “There’s honest, and then there’s honest. This book is so honest it will blow you away. With Unwifeable, Stadtmiller establishes herself as the Erica Jong of her generation—with storytelling as addictive as Jay McInerney.” —Colin Quinn, comedian and creator/star of The New York Story “Not since Confessions of a Video Vixen has a memoir been so fraught with insecurities and insurgence, humility and humor, degradation and, ultimately, deliverance. —Karrine Steffans, New York Times betselling author of Vindicated “Spectacular.” —Anna David, New York Times bestselling author of True Tales of Lust and Love “Unwifeable is a hilarious, unfiltered plunge; its laugh-out-loud candor will have you rolling on the floor, then getting up and cheering for Mandy every step of the way.” —Jill Kargman, creator and star of Odd Mom Out “I tip my hat to this absolute icon and queen of the night. Text Mandy for a good time.” —Babe Walker, New York Times bestselling author of Psychos: A White Girl Problems Book “Mandy Stadtmiller made me laugh hysterically, weep in recognition, and feel like I did New York all wrong. A behind-the-veil look at what it’s really like to be one of those girls-about-town that everybody is jealous of, Unwifeable is a compulsively readable work of radical honesty and tremendous heart.” —Rachel Shukert, writer for GLOW and author of Everything is Going to Be Great “Mandy Stadtmiller speaks the unspeakable in Unwifeable: All those things you think, but never tell anyone. And all those things you do, and hope no one finds out. Mandy lays it all out, and in the process, gets to the real issues of healing and self-discovery.” —Neil Strauss, nine-time New York Times bestselling author “This book is exactly what I’d expect from Mandy—introspective, funny, and excruciatingly honest. It feels like she wrote an unauthorized biography about herself.” —Jim Norton, New York Times bestselling author of I Hate Your Guts “Mandy Stadtmiller has written a rollicking and wildly honest tale that includes lots of sex, vodka, Andy Dick, comedy, and self-doubt. The big disappointment was that it ended and I had to go back to my life, which is a lot less interesting than Mandy’s.” —A. J. Jacobs, New York Times bestselling author of The Year of Living Biblically “A comic tour de force.” —Molly Jong-Fast, author of The Social Climber’s Handbook “Unwifeable is unflinching, unforgettable, and unputdownable. Also sexy, searingly honest, and hilarious. I loved it.” —Pamela Redmond Satran, author of Younger “Unwifeable is fast-paced, by turns bubbly and light and wrenchingly sad. It is an unusually honest and forthright catalogue of a life that has never been ordinary. A story of painful choices, of the saving power of humor, and of real love.” —Sara Benincasa, author of Real Artists Have Day Jobs “Wonderful, funny, heartbreaking, and redemptive.” —Kimberly Rae Miller, New York Times bestselling author of Coming Clean “Equal parts hilarious and heartbreaking. It’s one of those books that you read when you just want to feel like someone else GETS IT.” —Abigail Breslin, Academy Award–nominated actress “She’s brash, she’s sexy, and she’s scary real. Mandy’s optimism throughout her gritty growth is insightful and enlightening. She makes you feel alive.” —Sonja Morgan, entrepreneur and star of Real Housewives of New York City “Mandy Stadtmiller has managed to craft the rare combination of brutally raw and honest with hilarious and relatable. The perfect book for all of us imperfect women trying to figure out how the hell to make it.” —Jo Piazza, bestselling author of The Knockoff “Mandy Stadtmiller is so smart, insightful, and funny. Unwifeable will make you want to become her best friend.” —Megan Amram, author of Science . . . For Her! “A sex-soaked, bare-knuckled, razor-blade-in-the-Big-Apple cri de coeur.” —Jerry Stahl, author of Permanent Midnight “In Unwifeable, sister-in-ink Mandy Stadtmiller lands her biggest scoop yet: the hilarious yet deeply moving story of her life.” —Mark Ebner, New York Times bestselling author of Hollywood, Interrupted “A book not afraid to name names and reveal all, with the author leading the charge. A must for anyone brave enough to attempt a creative career in the big city—or any city.” —Mike Sacks, New York Times bestselling author of Poking a Dead Frog “Shot through with real pain and wisdom, Mandy Stadtmiller’s soul-baring story of self-destruction and self-discovery is laugh-out-loud funny, brutally honest, and utterly fearless—just like her.” —Sam Lansky, author of The Gilded Razor “Unflinchingly honest, raw, and relatable. You’re rooting for her the whole way.” —Lane Moore, author of How to be Alone “A raw, harrowing, piercingly funny, binge-filled account of self-destruction and self-discovery.” —Warren Leight, Tony Award–winning playwright and former showrunner for Law & Order: SVU “A savagely personal memoir that pulls no punches when it comes to exposing its author’s humanity. It’s as deeply intimate as it is extremely relatable. Mandy Stadtmiller is a stunning writer, equally comedic and sobering.” —Ira Madison III, columnist for The Daily Beast “Mandy Stadtmiller details all that she has endured and then has the grace to laugh it all off. It’s painfully hilarious.” —Joi-Marie McKenzie, author of The Engagement Game “Unflinching intelligence, lacerating wit, and an unexpectedly moving love story.” —John Fugelsang, host of Page Six TV Thank you for downloading this Simon & Schuster ebook.
