Title: You already know Anne Lamott...
Review: She's that girl you knew back in high school who walked around constantly saying, "I'm so fat," despite being skinnier than nine-tenths of the female population and loudly worrying that she was going to get a B on that French test we took yesterday when everyone knew she was going to get an A. This sort of behavior is nauseating enough in teenagers; in a middle-aged woman, it makes for bad memoirs.Her treatment of Christianity is so superficial in these pages as to be insulting to those of us who believe that God is something other than a Santa Claus who dispenses wishes. This book has little to do with faith; it's mostly a compilation of how the world has somehow wronged Anne Lamott. Perhaps some people find her privileged whine amusing, and I might have looked more kindly on the book if it didn't purport to be about "faith." But there are better memoirs by bulimics out there, and Anne Lamott's sophomoric "humor" gets on my nerves.
Is the review positive or negative?
