Grace (Eventually)


Several of my friends love Anne Lamott. I came across this book at a used book store and I bought it. I admit, I came into it knowing nothing about her or her story.

As I began to read, it started off great. Engaging and very interesting. Then, the more stories she told, the more tangents she went on in the middle of those stories, which I have little tolerance for. Some authors can do that well, but Lamott's came across as all over the place. There were just too many side stories within the bigger story and because it was too much to follow, I stopped reading.

I'm sure she's a great writer/person/fill in the blank. Her writing style is just not for me.
