Publisher Description

A celebration of ordinary awesomeness, for all of us who were told "You can do anything!" and then found out we actually can't



Crappy homes, lame love lives, getting passed over for a great job (again)--not what we expected for our adulthoods. Americans tell their children you can become anything! But let's face it--most of us can't.

Sure, some of our peers go on to become astronauts or billionaires. But most of us don't. In Average Is the New Awesome, Samantha Matt offers encouragement to us regular humans. Full of hilarious stories and insightful advice, this is a manifesto for ordinary awesomeness--for the beauty that can be found when we acknowledge that good enough really is good enough, and that greatness is ours to define.

Samantha Matt's advice, juxtaposed with hilarious personal stories, makes you feel like you're spending the afternoon with a close friend who is setting you straight and changing your life."

— JEN GLANTZ, author of Always a Bridesmaid (For Hire) and When You Least Expect It

Quotes

  • A heartfelt pep talk of a book. A true reminder that when you're feeling average, you might just be extraordinary.

    — MEREDITH GOLDSTEIN, author of Can't Help Myself: Lessons and Confessions from a Modern Advice Columnist
  • "Samantha Matt's Average Is The New Awesome has struck a chord with me at exactly the right point in my life. It's clever and relatable -- which I guess makes me average. But you know what? After reading Samantha's book, I'm okay with it!

    — CHARLEE FAM, author of Last Train to Babylon
  • Samantha Matt nails the unique concoction of concerns that plague almost all of us -- and even better, her wise, witty, warm advice offers practical solutions.

    — HANNAH ORENSTEIN, author of Playing with Matches and Love at First Like
  • A fun and refreshingly honest take on life for the social media generation. Holding yourself up to an impossible standard is so overrated, and Samantha Matt's always (thankfully) quick to remind us of that.

    — SARAH SOLOMON, author of Guac Is Extra but So Am I
