Title: What a disappointment!
Review: Anne Lamot's self-effacing humor just doesn't work here. Readers are supposed to believe that she can teach them something about spirituality simply because her book was published. Her self-congratulatory stories about her various addictions, how "fat" she thinks she is (even though anyone who has seen a photo of her knows she's thin) and episodes of neglecting her son do nothing to inspire me or move me spiritually. Lamot thinks God exists to dole out rewards for self-indulgent behavior and make her feel good about herself. If this is the God you believe in, then by all means, enjoy this book.
