Crooked Little Heart by Anne Lamott

2.0

Anne Lamott needs to stick to personal essays. They are comfortable, hilarious, and touch your heart. This book tried to do all those things, but fell short, especially to someone who has read Lamott's essays. It reads predictably, teenage tantrums described with adult nostalgia that makes them fall flat. Everything is covered in a sticky, oozy coating of "love" that made the plot saccharine and unbelievable.
