Stitches: A Handbook on Meaning, Hope and Repair by Anne Lamott

4.0

What a beautiful, insightful, and deeply felt book. I want to run out and buy copies for everyone I know as Christmas gifts. Lamott covers the basics of human life, with all its grief, chaos, love, and joy. I think this will hit close to home, especially for parents and for those who have experienced a profound loss of any kind. That might actually be everyone on the planet. Okay, so I recommend this to everyone on the planet. I read it in a single sitting while drinking a pot of tea at a local coffee shop and I can not imagine a more lovely way to spend a rainy afternoon. Lamott gets it. She just gets life. And after you read this book you're going to get it just a little bit more as well. My only regret is that there wasn't more of this book to read.
