My Thoughts:
What I Loved: I listened to the audio of this book because I couldn’t imagine anything better than hearing Tina Fey read this to me, and I was right. She was amazing. The book, the stories, her inflections, all of it rocked. I’m sure reading the book is great as well, but I highly recommend the audio.
How I Felt: This book made me laugh, a lot. And that’s what I was looking for. A friend mentioned that I’ve read a lot of heavy material lately, and I needed something light, and this was it!
In addition to all the laughing, I really appreciated the content. Tina Fey speaks a lot about women in the workplace, which is such an important topic. I have worked so hard to climb my little corporate ladder and be a woman in a man’s world. I appreciate Tina’s insight into her experiences, and had a few take-aways as well!
To Read or Not To Read: I think that this is a to-read for everyone. With wonderful stories to make you laugh, Tina’s very real attitude, and the “don’t give up” undertones made for a great book. Again, I vote for the audio if you are going to pick this one up. It’s amazing!
What’s This Book About Anyway?
Tina Fey, an Emmy-award winning actress and comedian, tells her story through memories of her childhood, reflections on her attitude towards her body, and her climb to the top. She walks the reader through her career struggles at the beginning, and as she became more successful. Topics like tips in case we (the reader) ever find ourselves at a photo shoot had me laughing out loud. Again, I highly recommend this book to everyone!
