Publisher Description
From the Golden Globe award-winning actress comes the #1 New York Times bestseller.
"Required reading for all young women" Best Books of 2014, Huffington Post
A memoir in essays in the tradition of Tina Fey's Bossypants and Caitlin Moran's How To Be a Woman, YES PLEASE is a hilarious collection of stories, thoughts, ideas, haikus and words-to-live-by drawn from the life and mind of acclaimed actress, writer and comedian Amy Poehler.
YES PLEASE finds Amy riffing on sex, love, family, friendship and plastic surgery, and is chock-full of great jokes and sage advice (the useful kind, not the annoying kind you didn't ask for).
Fans of Lena Dunham's Not That Kind of Girl, Caitlin Moran's How to Be a Woman, and Tina Fey's Bossypants will love Yes Please.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Like her friend Tina Fey’s Bossypants, actress Amy Poehler’s memoir is warm, funny and tremendously encouraging. Writing about everything from her childhood, self-image and career trajectory to general observations about love, heartbreak, friendship, fame and raising kids, Poehler goes from wry to silly to heartfelt. Reading Yes Please is a happy-making experience—you’ll laugh a lot and feel delighted that someone so sharp and talented shares many of your anxieties and dreams.
