Tina Fey proves that you can be a woman and still wear the pants in a male-dominated society. Her cheeky portrayal is enjoyable for any SNL or 30 Rock fan.
The ubiquitous Bossypants! Not as funny as expected but still a lot of laugh-out-loud parts! Definitely a fun, quick read.
Tina Fey is so funny, smart, and humble but I didn't realize how influential she has been for women in comedy.

Exactly what you would hope this would be. She's a tremendous writer! Just read it.

I laughed out loud in inappropriate places reading Bossypants, which I think about sums up this wonderful book. I'm not much of a non-fiction reader, and even less into autobiographical prose, but it would be quite the understatement to just say "I could relate..." when I read Bossypants. Every time I laughed and - on occasion, particularly in sections relating to being a working mom - sighed/groaned, I was really looking at myself.

Way more feminist than I was expecting. Deals with parenting, success, anxiety, trauma and comedy in one thick volume. I think I had the large type edition because it seemed unusually thick. I also enjoyed getting some back-story to the 30 rock jokes (the writer who wanted Blimpies in the final episode in real life always wanted to order McDonalds- who knew?
