Awesome. Hilarious. Amazing. I started reading this, but when my husband and I were taking a road trip decided to switch to the audio book read by Tina Fey. Yup, that's the way to do it, you betcha! *wink*

Everyone told me to listen to the audio book and I'm glad I did. It was truly hilarious. And while I don't agree with everything that's said in the book, Tina is doing her thing and being authentic and real with us all and appreciate that. I always knew she shifted things at Saturday Night Live to g...

I simply have no idea how you can read this book and not adore it. Writing? Brilliant. Content? Brilliant. Tina? Always, always brilliant. I'll be re-reading this soon.

I am doing a challenge where you read some books that won the Goodreads 2011 Award or runnerups. I picked this book, because it sounded funny and I had heard of Tina Fey, but had never heard her. I have never watched 30 Rock or SNL so I thought this book would be a good introduction to her."From he...

I didn't know much about Tina Fey before I read this book.

Tina Fey is hilarious on TV and occasionally in this book as well, but more than often than funny she comes across as kind of angry. Understandable I suppose as a woman in a tough industry, catering to a very tough crowd.

This is funny, but a little choppy in places. There are some great quotes. My favorite is: “I’ll be ready for it to happen and that way it won’t happen. It’s a burden, being able to control situations with my hyper-vigilance, but it’s my lot in life.”I agree with her completely about the Titantic mo...

If one section of this book didn't seem funny, insightful and/or interesting I just had to wait a chapter or two to be enthralled again. I plan to try to live by Fey's rules of improvisation which she says changed her life and the way she looked at the world and even reduced her belly fat (though sh...

Partly a fun quick read (love Tina Fey so of course it's funny). But mostly I took away from in Tina's observations about what I will term "girl stuff": sexism in the 2008 election, girl-on girl crime in the work place, being the woman boss, mommy stress, etc... Very interesting without being too he...
