Any Place I Hang My Hat
reviewed on + 300 more book reviews
Helpful Score: 2


Abandoned by ther mother before her first birthday, occasionally "parented" by her father (when he wasn't in prison!) Amy Lincoln basically raises herself, gains a scholarship to a New England boarding school, then goes to Harvard, then to Columbia School of Journalism. Now a reporter for a prestigious magazine, she doesn't know who she is or how to connect.

Amy's search for her mom becomes a search for a place to belong.

Funny observations on contemporary life and a great read.
