Help Thanks Wow The Three Essential Prayers by Anne Lamott


 "Amazing things appear in our lives, almost out of nowhere---landscapes, seascapes forgiveness---they keep happening; so many vistas and so much healing to give thanks foe. Even when we don't cooperate, blessings return to our lives, even in the aftermath of tragedy."

          -Anne Lamott



This is a small book of barely 100 pages, but pretty inspiring. It reminded me of a devotional book just not divided with day-by-day selections. Author Anne Lamott's style is what I would call unconventional, almost more poetry than prose. She feels that most prayers, if not all, include Thanks, Wow, Help or a combination. Lamott elaborates on those 3 in as many parts plus a 4th part---Amen. 

The book was interesting, thought-provoking, even entertaining. My rating is 4.
