Publisher Description
Spirited and whip-smart, these laugh-out-loud autobiographical essays are "a masterpiece" from the Emmy Award-winning actress and comedy writer known for 30 Rock, Mean Girls, and SNL" (Sunday Telegraph).
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!

Customer Reviews
Awesome!
Very funny!!!! Thoroughly entertaining!
Outrageously funny
I recommend this book to anyway one, especially if you are a Tina Fey fan! I was reading this in an arena and caught myself being looked at due to laughing out loud! Loved this book.
It started to grate on me
Tina Fey is talented and a better than average writer but since she has only Sarah Palin linked fame and a history of improv there is not a lot of substance to her biography. Writing comedy is tough and this book starts well but peters out.
