I usually like Anne Lamott's books and while this one was well written the main character of the story whined far to much for my taste. I had a hard time feeling sorry for her.

I have a sister who has MS and this book provided some good insights into what it's like to have this condition. I could have done without the raving about the use of marijuana though.
