I really like Tina Fey's sense of humor so I knew she would make me laugh. There is some vulgar topics and crude talk but I was prepared for that cause for goodness sakes she worked in the male dominated SNL world for 9+ years. I will say this if you are a fan of hers treat yourself to the audio book. She reads it herself and her comedic timing adds so much to the journey. I loved the look into how she arrived in the business and her discoveries about herself through her jobs. I thought it was a

Very enjoyable as an audiobook; I think I got more out of it listening than I would have reading the text. Not all authors are good readers, but Tina Fey does a wonderful job with this production. Surprisingly, I enjoyed the parts about her earlier life and her improv comedy work at least as much and maybe more than her description of her work on Saturday Night Live and 30 Rock.

I love Tina Fey and so far this book is so hilarious and I am only a few chapters in!

a few slow sections, but on the whole a very funny read. i love tina fey now more than ever.
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.

Re-read: feb 2013 - such an awesome audio book!!!!!
Orig read: nov 2011 - Oh man, I love Tina Fey. I agree with her about pretty much everything, especially the end of Titanic.
