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.

Very light and easy to listen audio book. There were chapters towards the end that weren't edited right, you could hear Tina repeat the same sentence in different ways. A bit of a rookie mistake for a big firm like audible...

great and funny book

La manière totalement aléatoire de séparer le livre en 77 chapitres n'était pas du tout pratique.
De plus, les anecdotes de sa vie personnelle étaient trop nombreuses par rapport à celle concernant sa carrière/vie professionnelle. Dommage, car Tina Fey est une actrice intéressante que j'aime beaucoup.

Bof.

As someone who almost never watches TV and has not seen more than one episode of 30 Rock or perhaps not even one, the only time this biography got a bit dull was one chapter heavily based on TV — references to TV referencing TV referencing TV. Even then I can still appreciate it the insight into creative process of a team of professional improvisers. Actual sketch excerpts were well chosen and entertaining. The Sarah Palin-Hillary Clinton sketch is as funny as ever, and its cool to learn how this career highlight was a real challenge, reluctantly accepted. Brilliant encouraging book for anyone interested in showbiz, improv, motherhood, leadership or memoir in general. A good compliment to the equally funny Rachel Dratch biog also available as audiobook by author.
