Operating Instructions was the first book I read by Anne Lamott and it remains one of my favorites (I also love Bird by Bird). It’s about Anne’s first year as single mom to her son Sam. For the most part the book is hilarious but there is also a sad element when Anne’s best friend copes with cancer. Just like life sometimes; happy and sad events at the same time.
