“Reading any Anne Lamott book is like visiting with an old friend, so I was really excited to read her new one, Help, Thanks, Wow: The Three Essential Prayers. This very short book is comforting, amusing, encouraging and in every way very wonderful. Anne Lamott goes over the immediate responses that we have to sorrow, horror, happiness, gratefulness, and she calls each of these responses a prayer, even though we might not have realized it. As usual, Lamott is irreverent and spiritual in her own special way. The reader sees that this is an easy way to talk to God all the time. After finishing the book I knew I’d be putting it on my nightstand so that I could dip into it often and highlight important passages. And, I need to buy more copies to give as gifts.” —Sue Domis, Inklings Bookshop, Yakima. Buy Help, Thanks, Wow from Inklings.
