i love bossypants

I started reading bossypants from Mr. Hills library, and i love it so much already! Tina Fey is so funny. She has a sarcastic tone mostly with everything that she says, or she is joking about something in her life. I love the way she always herself.

Even as a little girl, Tina Fey always dreamed of being a comedian. Now that her dreams have come true, the creator of 30 Rock and long time Saturday Night Live writer is ready to tell her story. Fey takes the reader on a journey through her childhood and through her career as she details the ups and downs of being a woman in a man’s world. Along with this is her signature witty commentary on motherhood, Hollywood beauty standards, being Sarah Palin, and more.

So much of what Fey says in this book was not only entertaining, but insightful as well. She discussed being a woman in comedy (traditionally a man’s world), being a working mother, and what it was like to impersonate Sarah Palin, as well as many more hilariously funny stories from her life. While I have to admit that I would have been happy with a little more depth to what Fey is discussing, I still enjoy the balance between honesty and humor. Her stories are funny while at the same time actually meaning something. It is a nice balance.
