Advanced Praise
“Amy Klein has done a great service to anyone trying and struggling to become a parent: she has told the truth. Having spent years in the infertility trenches—a sort of dual existence of public smiles and private anguish—she shares everything she wished she had known along the way so that others can benefit from her hard-won wisdom. An antidote to feeling overwhelmed, uninformed, and isolated, The Trying Game is a compassionate, often funny, well-researched, and ultimately empowering guide that candidly addresses every imaginable step on this journey.”
—Lori Gottlieb, New York Times bestselling author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone
