A man stands on top of cars in a traffic jam at sunset, surrounded by angry drivers; large red text at the top reads, "Always the other guy," with a billboard below saying, "It's your fault!"

Always the Other Guy is a raw, unfiltered memoir about what it means to always be misunderstood, underestimated, and left behind.

Allen writes from the heart about growing up in the shadow of others — always blamed, always doubted, and always expected to take the fall. It’s a story of misjudgment, rebellion, and finally rising with the proof of who you really are.

This isn’t just a story about trauma. It’s a story about truth. It’s about proving yourself to yourself when no one else bothers to look deeper.
