From Paralympic ski racer and YouTube star, Josh Sundquist, comes an always-funny (and sometimes-awkward) memoir about teenage misadventures.

When I was twenty-five years old, it came to my attention that I had never had a girlfriend. At the time, I was actually under the impression that I was in a relationship, so this bit of news came as something of a shock.

Why was Josh still single? To find out, he tracked down each of the girls he had tried to date since middle school and asked them straight up: What went wrong?

The results of Josh's semiscientific investigation are in your hands. From a disastrous Putt-Putt date involving a backward prosthetic foot, to his introduction to CFD (Close Fast Dancing), and a misguided "grand gesture" at a Miss America pageant, this story is about looking for love--or at least a girlfriend--in all the wrong places.

Poignant, relatable, and totally hilarious, this memoir is for anyone who has ever wondered, "Is there something wrong with me?"

Critic reviews

Praise for We Should Hang Out Sometime:"Sundquist is a storyteller-flawed, wry, laid-back and sympathetic. Anyone who's felt awkward will alternately (or simultaneously) wince and burst out laughing at his earnest misadventures with stalkers, "Close Fast Dancing" and flow charts... but above all, they'll be rooting for Sundquist to hang out with a girl. Funny, sympathetic and poignant, Sundquist's memoir has a high probability of success."—Kirkus Reviews
"[A] laugh-out-loud memoir...This is a unique, earnest, and funny coming-of-age story about Sundquist's experiences as a cancer survivor, amputee, Paralympic ski racer, and motivational speaker. Readers will appreciate the humorous and often embarrassingly accurate tales depicted in the pages of this book."—SLJ
"An autobiographical account that's equal parts hilarious and cringe-inducing...While his recent interviews and meetings with the girls from his past are often just as uncomfortable as their dates were, they also lead to answers as genuine as his narrative."—Publishers Weekly
"Often hilarious, occasionally awkward, and always hopeful, Josh's quest for love will have readers rooting for him all the way."—Jennifer E. Smith, author of The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight and The Geography of You and Me
"Josh Sundquist has written a sharp, funny memoir without an ounce of self-pity about how the fear of rejection can be far more crippling than any disease. A hilarious, heartfelt reminder that finding the courage to accept love is an inside job."—Aaron Hartzler, author of Rapture Practice

Really like the book, especially since it was a guy point of view talking about his love and relationships, kinda short but it was really good.

Enjoy it

It’s a great lesson on how we let our self consciousness, and self doubt get in our way and sabotage potential relationships and life opportunities.

Love the stories and the reading

I found myself increasingly connected to your story the longer I listened, and there's two main reasons why.

1) Because I've passed over guys before who liked me and never made a move, because they never said anything. BUT, I never said anything either, just like you, so I could relate! Since I knew this reasoning, I was practically screaming at you through the book, "Have confidence in yourself, you dummy!!!" haha.

2) My second reason is because I've over-judged myself in many ways over the years and I know it's affected my relationships through high school and college. I was always too harsh on myself and assumed no one would ever truly love me, and after a few "negative" relationships, I was going to stop trusting people all together and stop dating... I'm sp glad I met my current boyfriend Chris and took one last chance and elected to throw my heart in the open and trust him, because like your Ashley Sampsonite, he keeps me balanced. <3

So, thank you for the heart-to-heart and for all the fun math puns (good to know there's other cool nerds like me who love math ;D yea~ ), and I'm gonna go look into more books and material from you! :)

To Josh
