Beschreibung
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 always 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!

Ok, so technically I listened to this book, but Tina Fey herself narrates it, so it's even better. Also because I'm a fast reader, so this made the whole delightful experience last loads longer than it would have otherwise, offering me hours and hours of wisdom and hilarity. Besides being incredibly funny, Fey is also an inspiration to women everywhere-- she is a wonderful example of a woman with a dream, who works hard, and who succeeds despite not being married to some powerful man or being supersexy (I mean, she is, but not in the stereotypical way), but because she's wicked talented and doesn't give up. But she doesn't make it sound like it's all been a bed of roses, either. She's got all kinds of stories about childhood trauma, teenage humiliation, mishaps in early adulthood, and so on and so forth. Her path to success wasn't an easy or quick one. So... yeah. If you like laughing, read it. Unless you love Sarah Palin for reals. In that case, walk away.
