Welcome to Cringe's library where we recommend books, videos, and podcasts that have either helped us write our content or are all-round Cringe certified bangers.
Please note that we earn a small commission every time you purchase a book through our links. We're affiliates for Blackwell's and Bookshop.org, an online bookshop with a mission to financially support local, independent bookshops.

Hello, friend.
Got an embarassing story you need to get off your chest?
Something you're OK being ashamed of?
Maybe you're just a good Samaritan who wants to make the rest of us
feel better about ourselves?
Get in, loser! We're going to Cringe town!
Feel free to share your most embarassing, cringe-worthy moments with us here, so we can all laugh at our own, messy humanity when reading about it. It's definitely not therapy, but maybe the memory will plague you a little less after writing about it.
