A Girl Named Zippy was a fun read. I think I enjoyed it so much because she was born in 1965 and that is close to my birth year.
I really liked Traveling Mercies, A Girl Named Zippy and Night. Good choices!
Love, love, love Anne Lamott and Haven Kimmel. And, I hope to read The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt kid, soon. Looks like another fun list. You’re quite the list-maker, aren’t you?
