This book made me heartily laugh out loud! Devrie’s humor is woven so stunningly and naturally throughout every chapter, even in the most devastating and crushing moments. It is full of sage advice and hard truths, but never pretentious or all-knowing, it is gentle and loving and cozy. I want to give this to my mom, my sister, and my girlfriends. This book made me hopeful for the future of writing and proud to be a woman living in this time.”

I found myself laughing out loud, then crying tears I didn’t know I had in me, then crying from hysterically laughing again, all while feeling fully seen. This is the book I needed to navigate growing up, the book I didn’t know I needed at thirty years old, and the book I would gift to every woman in my life.”

A collection of delicate and complex emotions shown under the softest of lights, handled with care, all while allowing you room to laugh and smile.”
Jessy Parr
I’ve never read a book like this before. It flowed like a deep conversation with Devrie; the kind where you wrap up in your favorite blanket by the bonfire with your girlfriends and recount soul-crushing AIM convos in middle school, the hell we put our bodies through in the name of beauty, and the devastating losses that we used as fuel to build ourselves back up. Every sentence is in Devrie’s quick, assured voice we’ve come to know and love. She just GETS IT.”
New York Times bestselling author of Yours Truly Abby Jimenez
You’re Gonna Die Alone is a perfect companion for anyone who needs a belly laugh, a good cry, and a freaking break.”
Eliza Day
Devrie reaches across time and space to grab the hand of the scared and ashamed thirteen-year-old that lives within each of us and firmly but tenderly declare: life is too short to play small. Equal parts time capsule, love letter, and permission slip, Devrie’s story is delightfully funny and profoundly liberating.”
Anna Przy
