Description

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The bestselling author of High Achiever chronicles life after addiction—the raw, the dark, and the hilarious—from setting out with nothing but a backpack to discovering her marriage was built on a shakier foundation than she’d ever imagined to staying sober when life fell apart.“Tiffany Jenkins illustrates that recovery is not just about sobriety, but about learning to live and feel again. Her compelling story is a testament to the power of resilience, humor, and hope.”—Sarah Levy, author of Drinking GamesA Clean Mess opens with the moment that changed everything. Tiffany is about to go on stage when she receives an odd message from her husband: “Hey Babe, some of the guys here are making some stupid decisions. Not me. But I just wanted to let you know in case you heard it from some of the other wives.” By the end of the night, Tiffany knew her life would never be the same.This wasn’t the first time she had to start over. After the opioid addiction and jail sentence that she chronicled in her bestselling memoir, High Achiever, Tiffany was ready for a fresh start. A chance to try life again, this time without drugs coursing through her veins. In A Clean Mess, she takes us back to those early days of recovery, and the whirlwind that she entered the moment she was out of prison. In just two years, she went from inmate to married and sober mom of three.Told with humor and honesty, A Clean Mess is Tiffany Jenkins’s story of how she learned to live and feel for the first time without numbing herself with drugs—and how she discovered inner reserves of strength she didn’t know she had. From her tentative first days of sobriety, to seeing two pink lines on a pregnancy test weeks later, to navigating anxiety, a new marriage, and motherhood at the same time, to surviving betrayal and divorce, Jenkins shows how she got through it all when her crutches and Band-Aids were taken away from her. An inspiring memoir that comes across like fiction, A Clean Mess is a book that will buoy anyone seeking a life raft in hard times. Read more

    • A Clean Mess by Tiffany Jenkins
Review Image by Riley Roo's Mama Riley Roo's Mama
I have followed Tiffany on social media for several years now. I read her first book in one day. She left me wanting more, I needed to know how things turned out after becoming a wife and mom while remaining clean and (mostly sane). "A Clean Mess" picks up where "High Achiever" left off, letting us all into the private, most personal parts of her life that were kept quiet for so long. I can relate to so many things she wrote about in this book. I’m not typically a big reader, but as a longtime supporter of Tiffany, I had to get this book... And it did not disappoint! Tiffany is so real, down to earth, completely open and honest. She wrote in such detail and unfiltered honesty, I felt like I was there. I pre-ordered the day I found out it was available. The months of waiting were so worth it! I also bought the Audible version so I could hear Tiffany narrate her own story, while following along with the physical book, which made the experience even more real. I waited anxiously for Amazon to deliver. I read most of it the same day. I took the entire day off to read it without distractions. I made myself stop reading so I wouldn't be awake all night and I wanted to really take in every moment, not just rush through it. I finished it the next day and started reading it from the beginning again. Yes, it really is that good! Tiffany finds herself in a predicament that changes her entire life from that moment forward. This real life story is gripping, raw, relatable, and we get the good, the bad and the ugly, it's all there. Tiffany really poured her soul out in this memoir. It takes a lot of courage to allow yourself to be vulnerable, unveiling so many personal details, but she did it. It’s a powerful reminder that healing is possible, and that strength comes in many forms. I am so incredibly proud of her! Scrapping the first final copy that was already sent in, getting it back and rewriting the entire story to give us the real, updated version was the best decision and I'm so glad she did it! Tiffany is so authentic, the way she describes her feelings through the journey from the halfway house through marriage, motherhood, juggling a career on social media, having a sense of security, to have things completely take a turn no one could expect is both shocking and inspiring in how she handled it all. Putting in the hard work to maintain her recovery, sanity, managing social media in the midst of a crisis, learning to navigate this new way of life, it is so inspiring. I know this book is going to help a lot of people. Whether you're someone in recovery, a loved one of someone who is, or someone dealing with mental health challenges, betrayal, divorce, becoming a single parent, getting your life back and what that may entail for you in your own journey through this crazy thing called life, "A Clean Mess" has something for you. I am so beyond grateful to have the privilege of knowing Tiffany, even if only through social media. The impact she has had on my life, she will never fully understand. I HIGHLY recommend this book!! ... show more

    • The Most Relatable and Validating Book
I do have addiction issues but my ex husband does and this book absolutely was relatable and validating to my experience of relapse and subsequent divorce. Tiffany is brutally honest about who she is and this book is no different. There is laughter, triumph, depressing lows and ultimately happiness! It is a joy to follow you on SM but to read the story behind the scenes has been the cherry on the cake. Congrats on a wonderfully written book! ... show more

    • Just do it.
This book was absolutely incredible. Raw and relatable with some humor and real life all in one. I could feel the emotions and hear the highs and lows. I sat down three times to actually read and finished the book in those three (lengthy) sittings I can’t say I understand being an addict but I 100% understand being a mom who’s overwhelmed and sometimes feels like she’s doing it alone even with a husband. I understand PPD. I understand anxiety and intrusive thoughts. Beautifully written. ... show more

    • Love This Book!
Tiffany Jenkins has done it again!! I am in love with her writing, her story and her storytelling ability! Her book is written with raw honesty and vulnerability. This story of redemption is so relatable and encouraging. It’s a reminder that even when it all is falling apart - it does get better. ❤️

    • Great Book!
This was a great book! Ive been waiting for years for this book! I’ve been following Tiffany for a long time and there were parts I remembered seeing videos about- which was a cool feeling for me! I do feel like the end seemed a little rushed and left me wanting more. Maybe we will get a 3rd?? Regardless, if you haven’t read either of books- shame on you! Read them. Love them. And love her and her story. She’s the definition of strength and resilience. ... show more

Review Image by Tiffany Tiffany
Buy this book!!! I read it in one night! I could NOT put it down. I have never personally struggled with addiction but I fell in love with someone that eventually did. We went our own ways and eventually he passes at 38 years old. We have two children together. I love hearing someone else’s story about getting through addiction. The raw feelings, pain, heartbreak, struggles, and the redemption. I love knowing that some people have a victory through addiction and their children keep their parent. That is beautiful. I love that Tiffany keeps fighting and uses her testimony to help others. Life may not have turned out the way she planned but her life story is one that is helping others find hope and not feeling alone. This is my first ever Amazon review. I am so happy to support Tiffany on her journey to victory and helping others. PS. This is an easy read. I follow Tiffany on social media platforms and have to say the book is her. So many authors have memoirs that sound so unlike them. I appreciate that this book is very authentic and true to Tiffany. That’s what makes this book even more valuable to read. ... show more

    • Absolutely brilliant, hard to put down! Raw, honest and just an incredible read!! BUY THE BOOK!!!
I have followed Tiffany before she wrote her 1st book. As soon as I heard she wrote her 1st book(as a recovering addict) I had to have it. It was the first book I had read since I was in school. It sparked my love of reading again! Fast forward to this year and u heard she put out a second book!!! I bought it as soon as I heard it was out. Most books take me a week or 2 to get through, however when i get one in my hands like this book, I couldn't put it down. I read it in 2 parts! It's such a raw, beautiful story of an addict surviving something that would cause most to relapse. Instead she kept her nose down and kept trucking. I am so proud of her for this accomplishment! This is such a relatable book! My life has gone similar to hers. It's good to know that even if your marriage/relationship falls apart. You can still find love(with children) as older women. If you haven't bought this book yet. I highly recommend you do!!!!! She's brilliant!!!! ... show more
