Bossypants By Tina Fey

Bossypants by Tina Fey

About The Book:

Before Liz Lemon, before "Weekend Update," before "Sarah Palin," Tina Fey was just a young girl with a dream: a recurring stress dream that she was being chased through a local airport by her middle-school gym teacher. She also had a dream that one day she would be a comedian on TV. She has seen both these dreams come true. At last, Tina Fey's story can be told. From her youthful days as a vicious nerd to her tour of duty on Saturday Night Live; from her passionately halfhearted pursuit of physical beauty to her life as a mother eating things off the floor; from her one-sided college romance to her nearly fatal honeymoon - from the beginning of this paragraph to this final sentence. Tina Fey reveals all, and proves what we've all suspected: you're no one until someone calls you bossy. (Includes Special, Never-Before-Solicited Opinions on Breastfeeding, Princesses, Photoshop, the Electoral Process, and Italian Rum Cake!)

My Thoughts:

First off, the cover disturbs me. It just really kinda creeps me out. But the book is phenomenal. So funny, but of course, why wouldn't it be? Even if you don't know who Tina Fey or have never seen her on TV (do you live under a rock?), this book is still a great read, and it will fill you in on who Tina is, really. If you are looking for a deep-soul revealing memoir, then this probably is not it. It is lighthearted, witty, laugh out loud funny, and endearing. I'm glad she wrote the book the way she did, because anything else would not have been Tina Fey.

About The Author:

Tina Fey lives in Manhattan, where she is the third funniest person in her household, after her husband and five-year-old daughter.
