Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Anne Lamott is an incredible essayist; her witty observations and naked divulgences make me want to call her up and ask her to be my best friend. I am, therefore, sad to admit that I don't feel fiction is the best mode for her to showcase her talent. In general, I feel her plots are often somewhat weak and her characterizations are uneven. However, I think she hits the mark more in All New People than in any of her other novels that I have, as yet, read. She remembers so clearly how she felt as a teenager, and expresses it in a wonderfully readable, and sometimes hilarious, way. The entire family was well-drawn in this book, particularly the relationship between the brother and sister. I could relate to a lot of it, and have already re-read it once.
