Introducing the new hoopla Book Club Hub Spotlight Title…

“Wachs writes with immense love, humor, and humanity.”

Always Available

- Booklist

“A powerful debut.” – Kirkus

“[A] touching memoir…a story ultimately about renewal and hope.” - Houston Chronicle

“Human and heartbreaking.” - Bill Clegg, NYT bestselling author

One phone call. That’s all it took to change Stephanie Wittels Wachs’s life forever. Her younger brother Harris, a star in the comedy world known for his work on shows like Parks and Recreation, had died of a heroin overdose. In beautiful, unsentimental, and surprisingly funny prose, Wachs alternates between her brother’s struggle with addiction, and the first year after his death, in all its emotional devastation. Everything Is Horrible and Wonderful is a heartbreaking but hopeful memoir of addiction, grief, and family.
