Josh Peck rose to near-instant fame when he starred on Nickelodeon’s hit show, Drake and Josh. But while he tried to maintain his role as the funniest, happiest kid in every room, Josh struggled alone with the kind of rising anger and plummeting confidence that quietly took over his life. For the first time, Josh reflects on his late teens and early twenties in his memoir, “Happy People are Annoying.”

Coming of age under a spotlight that could be both invigorating and cruel while being raised by a single mother, Josh filled the cratering hole in his self-worth with copious amounts of food, television, drugs, and all of the other trappings of young stardom. Until he realized that the only person standing in his way... was himself.

Today, with a string of lead roles on hit television shows and movies, and one of the most enviable and dedicated fan bases on the internet, Josh Peck is more than happy – he’s finally, enthusiastically content. "Happy People are Annoying" is the culmination of years of learning, growing, and finding bright spots in the scary parts of life.
