Humor and goodness is the perfect way to put it!

What a great idea! I didn’t know she had a public Facebook page. The book is the same way- acknowledging how bad things are but still trying to find joy in life.

I love Anne Lamott and have read all of her nonfiction besides this one. I’m on the waiting list at the library. I just like to read her Facebook posts sometimes – she always makes me feel better without sugar-coating how awful things can be.

I do! She’s not overtly political- I don’t think you’d disagree with any of her concerns. She may be a bit more worried about the world ending than you are, but it’s not annoying. I also think audio- if she’s reading would be marvelous because it would heighten the feel of hanging out with a friend and talking.

She charms me. I think she would be a wonderful person to have a drink with- even if she doesn’t drink.

She makes me laugh, and think deeply. I have this one and will be reading it soon.

I want to read more of her since reading Bird by Bird and am trying to figure out where to go next. I’m thinking maybe on audio.
