Review
"[Lamott's] crisp writing and self-deprecating honesty ring charmingly true."
--People
"[Some Assembly Required is] full of Lamott's trademark neurotic spirituality, and it's one Lamott's fans will want."--The Washington Post
"Wonderful . . . [with] Lamott's trademark sharp wit and self-deprecating humor . . . Like so many of Lamott's books, [Some Assembly Required] leaves readers with new insights."--The Associated Press
"[Lamott's] typical combination of astuteness and wit . . . As always, Lamott's 'raggedy faith' is central to her, and whether you share her concerns or not, you appreciate her candor."--NPR
"The story of one year in a woman's life, a year that happens to include the arrival of a blanket-bundled gift for Lamott and her longtime readers."--San Francisco Chronicle
"[Some Assembly Required] highlights the trademark humor we've come to expect from Lamott, with laugh-out-loud one-liners that are both self-deprecating and wise ... a welcome addition in the larger Gospel of Lamott."--Minneapolis Star Tribune "Funny, insightful, irreverent...filled with humor and the author's quirky faith...Bound to do for grandmothers what the earlier book did for mothers -- bring them insight and sanity in the midst of chaos."
--The Denver Post "Anne Lamott's singular gift for bringing readers into the intimate circle of her life flows effortlessly in this new memoir, mixing the absurd and sublime with her usual alchemical genius...you'll be seduced by the darkly comic tone, self-deprecating wit, and relentless honesty; she somehow makes the bumps and joys of her life intensely relatable. She can capture the bliss and beauty of tiny emotional events in a few perfect words, then skewer her own worst impulses with brutal hilarity."
--Bust Magazine
