Publisher Description
Once in a generation a woman comes along who changes everything. Tina Fey is not that woman, but she met that woman once and acted weird around her.
Before 30 Rock, Mean Girls and '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 half-hearted 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 in this hilarious memoir, and proves what we've all suspected: you're no one until someone calls you bossy.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Tina Fey charts the course of her remarkable life and details her many misadventures in this hilarious audio edition of her best-selling memoir. Covering everything from her childhood and family to her days performing improv in Chicago and time at Saturday Night Live, Fey never fails to entertain. Her conversational narration is superb, her comedic timing spot-on, and her stories laugh-out-loud funny. Additionally, Fey creates a host of unique voices for the many characters with whom she crosses paths. Whether she's climbing a dangerous mountain to impress an uninterested would-be boyfriend or holding court on parenting and gender roles, Fey leaves listeners laughing and longing for more. Totally addictive and utterly enjoyable, this audio is an absolute must for fans and just about everyone else too. A Reagan Arthur hardcover.

Bossypants
The only audio book I have ever listened to twice! What the world needs is more women like Tina Fey. Intelligent, honest and funny. If she was a guy she would be president!
Great Laugh
A must read.
laugh out loud funny
A fantasticly well-written, hilarious book that made me laugh out loud almost too much. Just the right balance of humour with few valuable life lessons and advice mixed in there (as Tina puts it, like hiding spinach in brownies). Only slight criticism is that the footnotes in this electronic version were all at the end of it, so it was hard to cross reference them with their intended contexts.
A must-read.
