Getting out of prison was the start of Tiffany Jenkins's recovery, not the end of it. Her follow-up to High Achiever tracks the whirlwind years that came after her release.
Readical Key Points
New York Times bestseller, according to the publisher; the follow-up to Jenkins's bestselling memoir High Achiever
Covers early sobriety after prison, a fast marriage, pregnancy and motherhood, anxiety, and, in the author's account, betrayal and divorce
Content note: addresses opioid addiction, incarceration and recovery; one person's experience, not a treatment guide or a substitute for professional care
Hardcover, 304 pages; Harmony, 2025; reviewed in Publishers Weekly
The book opens on the night a text from her husband, arriving just before she went on stage, set her life on a new course. From there Jenkins goes back to her release and the two years that took her from a cell to sobriety, marriage and three children, then forward through anxiety, the marriage and its end. Her subject is learning to feel things without drugs to blunt them.
Publishers Weekly calls it darkly comic, and it suits readers of recovery memoirs and of High Achiever. Getting clean opens the story; staying clean while life fell apart fills the rest of it.
