Today, May 1st, we begin the first discussion question for the Beyond Busy Global Monthly Book Club. We just finished Anne Lamott’s Some Assembly Required, A Journal of My Son’s First Son and now we will spend seven days discussing it. Anyone who has read the book can participate by commenting. You can also join our public BBGMBC Facebook group, if you would like to join us in reading one excellent quality book per month and then discussing it here.
Some Assembly Required, A Journal of My Son’s First Son is written by Anne Lamott with Sam Lamott and published by Riverhead in 2012.
This is a book by an author with a huge following. So the first question has to be asked: Are you new to Anne Lamott’s work or are you a long-time Anne Lamott fan?
How does your past history with this author (or your lack of past history with this author) impact your attitude towards this book?
Would you purchase and read anything Lamott wrote? If so, why? If not, why not?
If you are a hard-core Lamott fan, tell us why.
Does it matter? Why or why not?
Let the games begin! (I’ll announce the May book in a separate post to follow this one.)
