?If you only read one book in your life, it probably shouldn't be this one. However, if you're not operating an inexplicable one-book policy, these stories are funny, touching, and more than worth your time.? ? John Oliver ?Josh Gondelman is one of the most original hilarious voices out there today. This book will hook you and make you laugh and laugh.? ? Amy Schumer Emmy-Award winning writer and comedian Josh Gondelman's collection of personal stories of best intentions and mixed results. Josh Gondelman knows a thing or two about trying?and failing. The Emmy Award-winning stand-up comic?dubbed a ?pathological sweetheart? by the New York Observer?is known throughout the industry as one of comedy's true ?nice guys.? Not surprisingly, he's endured his share of last-place finishes. But he keeps on bouncing back. In this collection of hilarious and poignant essays (including his acclaimed New York Times piece ?What if I Bombed at My Own Wedding??), Josh celebrates a life of good intentions?and mixed results. His true tales of romantic calamities, professional misfortunes, and eventual triumphs reinforce the notion: we get out of the world what we put into it. Whether he's adopting a dog from a suspicious stranger, mitigating a disastrous road trip, or trying MDMA for the first (and only) time, Josh only wants the best for everyone?even as his attempts to do the right thing occasionally implode. Full of the warm and relatable humor that's made him a favorite on the comedy club circuit, Nice Try solidifies Josh Gondelman's reputation as not just a good guy, but a skilled observer of the human condition.
