This book was not at all what I expected! Anne Lamott holds nothing back in her memoir-like chronicle of her faith and how she relies on it to get her through the challenges that life throws her way. She has had a very interesting life so far, and she writes with wit and grace and a bit of vulgarity to make her point. I truly loved her description of how she thinks God must smell (I won't give it away) and her loving recollections of the many characters she has met in her very interesting and bohemian life! I fell in love with a couple of the people in her life. There were definitely some poignant moments and times when I recognized myself or someone I know and love in the people in her life. I'd highly recommend this book!
