"To be our best selves, we must become secure in our insecurities. In The Hidden Power of F*cking Up, The Try Guys -- Keith, Ned, Zach, and Eugene -- reveal their philosophy of trying: how to fully embrace fear, foolishness, and embarrassment in an effort to understand how we all get paralyzed by a fear of failure. They'll share how four shy, nerdy kids have dealt with their most poignant life struggles by attacking them head-on and reveal their -- ahem -- sure-fail strategies for achieving success. But they're not just here to talk; they're actually going to put their advice to work. To demonstrate their unique self-improvement formula, they'll each personally confront their deepest insecurities. A die-hard meat-lover goes vegan for the first time. A straight-laced father transforms into a fashionista. A perpetually single sidekick becomes the romantic lead. A child of divorce finally grows more intimate with his family. Through their insightful, emotional journeys and surprising, hilarious anecdotes, they'll help you overcome your own self-doubt to become the best, most f*cked up version of yourself you can be!"--Back cover.… (meer)

As a fan, this is exactly what I wanted from the Try Guys. Thanks Keith, Zach, Eugene, and Ned. Thanks for opening up and trying and sharing the journey with the rest of us. Stayyyyy beautiful. ( )

I adore the Try Guys, so I had to check out their book. I listened to the audio book, and have mixed feelings. On one hand I loved hearing them be silly and play off of one another in a way that the text may not have allowed. On the other hand there was a lot of yelling and volume inconsistency because of that same silliness. Overall I enjoyed listening, though. ( )

This was a fun, surface-level read. I didn't read it as a self-help guide at all, but just as a normal "celebrity kind-of memoir" that I read a lot of as a kid. (Three facts about me: I read three different memoirs from The Hanson Brothers' perspectives and full-on hoarded the Taylor edition. Ten-year-old me was sure worried someone would swipe it. Twelve-year-old me gave it to a consignment shop.) Not a lot of new information was revealed to me, but it was presented in a creative way and in a new medium. For reference, I'd say I was an average Try Guys fan. I watch all their videos, some multiple times, and follow Zach and Eugene on Twitter. I related to them both a lot while reading. I'm really glad for the Try Guys that this shot to bestseller status so fast, and I wish for the best for all of them. ( )

This review is also featured on Behind the Pages: The Hidden Power of Fucking Up

The Try Guys have created a guide to taking chances and making mistakes. You’ll learn how jumping out of your comfort zone can lead to inspiration and a boost in self-confidence. And you’ll learn that sometimes things don’t turn out the way you expect them to and it’s ok. It just means you need to try again and do it in a different way. Learning what works best for you, is part of the experience.

I think fans of The Try Guys will absolutely love this book. I highly recommend the audio because each of The Try Guys reads their own sections. Hearing their humor and personalities really made the lessons stand out. Will people who haven’t heard of The Try Guys enjoy this? Ned, Keith, Eugene, and Zach each have unique personalities and perspectives of life. I think just about anyone can connect with at least one of the guys. And their approach to giving advice is different from other self-help books.

The greatest part about this book is that The Try Guys don’t just give you advice. They use their advice throughout the book to show how real-life examples work. Is it hard? Absolutely. They dive into some of the most insecure areas of their life and talk about how they feel during the process of their try. The Try Guys also don’t gloss over the difficulties they have each faced in their lives. The challenges of work/life balance, being comfortable in their physical appearances, the dynamics of their families, there is a myriad of topics available for readers to learn from.

Not only do they venture into different tries, but they also have no problem complaining about them and explaining why they may not work for them. This truly is a book about mistakes. Not every decision you make is going to be a good one. That’s the course of life. But just because you made a mistake, doesn’t mean the next time you try something it will be bad. Just keep trying, and you’ll find some amazing results.

I loved this book. The humor each Try Guy brought into the narration was fantastic. While self-help books can be educational they tend to also be dry. This is educational and entertaining at the same time. I was laughing at their antics while also enjoying the lessons they were sharing. I would read another book by The Try Guys in a heartbeat. ( )

I am a huge fan of The Try Guys and I have watched all of their videos. When they announced that they were releasing a book, I immediately put the pub date on my calendar. The book not only met my expectations, but exceeded them. It felt like I was actively watching one of their videos. They wrote in depth about things previously mentioned in their videos, which made reading their stories feel more intimate. I was excited that their individual personalities jumped off the page. In fact, I was inspired to try new things on my own and face my personal fear of f*cking up, which was obviously one of their goals. I would say I recommend this to anyone and everyone, especially fans of The Try Guys, but I'm sure all of their fans have either planned to read it or have already given it a well-deserved 5 stars.
