"This is the book so many of us need right now: a fierce-but-tender guide to conquering our self-doubt so that we can breathe, be kind to ourselves, and enjoy the one life we're given."--Glennon Doyle, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Love Warrior

"This isn't just a memoir; it's too helpful for that. But it's not a self-help guide either; it doesn't promise to cure your ills and it won't make you roll your eyes. It's a bracingly honest, funny read that will make you feel you're not alone in the world. Tara Schuster's debut is like Wild meets You Are a Badass, and her reflections offer hope for Millennials that if your parents didn't quite ace their roles, it's not too late to re-parent yourself."--Adam Grant, New York Times bestselling author of Give and Take, Originals, and Option B

"Buy Yourself the F*cking Lilies is so riveting and smart and funny that the first time I picked it up, I spent hours reading it and nodding along and crying big salty tears over how sad it feels to hate yourself, and how good it feels to start crawling toward joy in spite of everything. Schuster not only offers amazingly concrete, useful advice, but she shares vivid stories that somehow make you feel less alone in the world. I strongly, wholeheartedly recommend this book."--Heather Havrilesky, author of New York magazine's "Ask Polly" advice column

"Buy Yourself the F*cking Lilies is a game-changer. Full of sage and hilarious real talk, this poignant primer is a fresh way to discover who you are and cultivate who you want to be.

Prepare to laugh, cry, cringe, and thrive."--Beck Dorey-Stein, New York Times bestselling author of From the Corner of the Oval

"In this fun, debut memoir-cum-guide to 'reparenting' oneself and living one's best life, Schuster, a Comedy Central executive, candidly shares her worst experiences and what's she learned from them. She writes of how she went from self-medicating and self-sabotaging to reclaiming her life by developing healthy rituals such as journaling, writing thank you notes, using vision boards, and cultivating gratefulness. She also divulges sage advice she's been given from mentors and friends, including Jon Stewart and Anjelica Huston. . . . Schuster is jovial throughout and relies on the authority of her experience as she surveys but never overly lauds her impressive career. Filled with gems of wisdom, Schuster's chronicle of her ups and downs is a winner."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Schuster is generous in sharing her experience with this journey toward mindfulness. Her anecdotes of friendship, work, family, relationships, and self-discovery are sweet and rife with imperfect behavior, which is exactly why readers will find her guidance so effective."--Booklist
