I've always liked Tina Fey, so it's no surprise that I enjoyed her book. Celebrity memoirs can be hit or miss, but this one was a fast, funny read.

I really enjoyed this. The audio book was hysterical, hearing the stories in Tina Fey's voice made it all the more awesome. I wound up getting the book from the library so I could see the pictures of Tina in her white denim suit-I'd recommend doing both-you don't want to miss out on the narration or the pictures!
Tina Fey is smart and funny and she's also a brilliant business woman. She has managed to create an incredilby successful career without being in a sex tape or a trashy reality show. Ima ...more

I liked her voice, her honesty, her struggle with fame and kids. She's still in mid-career and she didn't talk as someone who "has made it". She shows a gracious side that is mature, and I was looking for something like that. At the same time, she also dissed someone in a really sly way. Honest, real, and of course humorous. There are things to learn from her, so I would recommend it.

So funny - great plane read on trip to Scotland. Funny books on the plane take my mind off flying!
Tina Fey cracks me up. This book is a quick, funny read!
I loved the pictures of her as a child. Liked hearing how the whole Sarah Palin thing came about. The last chapter should really not have been in there. It was more like a journal entry and didn't really relate to the rest of the book. Liked the prayer from a mother to it's child (some parts). Overall, it was a quick, fun read but not spectacular.

This book was funny. It didn't teach me anything or push me to think about the world in a different way. But it made me laugh, and it made me happy that Tina Fey is an available role model to so many. Sarah Rutledge's review summarizes my feelings more eloquently: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...

Really entertaining. I recommend the audiobook because Tina Fey is a really funny performer as well as writer, and it comes with a PDF (even downloadable from Audible) so you don't miss the illustrations.

A funny, quick read. Fey's distinctive voice comes through clearly in each essay.
