Loneliness is like that one ex who just won't take the hint-it's time to break up for good.

In How to Not Die Alone, comedian Michael Murphy serves up brutally honest and hilariously relatable wisdom about connection, heartbreak, and why group texts shouldn't count as a social life. With wit sharper than your last situationship's exit, this book is your laugh-out-loud survival guide to navigating modern loneliness and finding real connection-without losing your mind (or your Wi-Fi signal).

Inside, you'll discover:

• How to spot emotional unavailability-especially in yourself
• The difference between being alone and being lonely
• Why your love life isn't doomed (even if your plants keep dying)
• And how to build a life that doesn't revolve around someone else's validation

Equal parts comedy, confessional, and hug in book form, How to Not Die Alone is for anyone who's ever felt ghosted by love-or just tired of talking to their cat about their day.

Spoiler alert: You're not broken. You're just in a really weird season. And you're not alone.
