What now? by Ann Patchett is written for Graduates of either high school or college. It's based on a commencement speech she gave at her Ala Mater, Sarah Lawrence College. My hardcover is a very quick read (I read it on one bus trip home from work). It has less than 100 pages, including pictures. I enjoyed the book, particularly the personal stories about baking a particular batch of chocolate-chip cookies and filling in for a dish-washer. The lessons that she drew from these situations and others show a depth of thought and wisdom that will be relevant to the lives of young adults and graduates. I'd recommend this book and give it a 4 out of 5
