Road trip back to visit my daughter! Time for a celebrity memoir audiobook to help pass the time. I know I've been meaning to read this for a while, but I hadn't realized that had stretched to over a decade until Fey started talking about…

I enjoyed this autobiography by Tina Fey very much. I expected the writing to be funny -- she was laugh out loud funny. I expected the writing to be intelligent -- you know she is. I expected the bossypants would show -- she is a badass…

Tina Fey is hilarious, and this book is no exception. I admire her for sharing a comical and relatable recollection of some of her life events, and she proves that you can come from average means and work your way to the top with personal…

I have always liked Tina Fey but this book made me not like her. I felt like she tried way to hard to be funny and her life wasn't that intersting. I did like the do what you want and f*ck anyone who gets in your way but that's about it. I…

Very, very funny writer. Not someone I'd probably want to hang out with, but of course I never would have that opportunity so who cares? I'll just sit back and laugh at the wit she generates.

Comical read written with Tina Fey style of humor - of course, the author. Whenever I see an SNL male comedy writer, I will forever see cups & jars with “apple juice.” ... Since we're in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, instead of…

Not funny at all.

Listening to the audio-book, although I really like Tina Fey, I found her material a little outrageous, sometimes for the good, but often not it was just too much. Her fast delivery made it a little challenging to follow at times. I have…

I was able to listen to the audiobook (read by the author of course) and I do believe that there is a brand of uniqueness to the experience of listening to Fey recall old memories and trade secrets. I've always been a fan of Tina Fey - the…

Tina Fey is the ultimate boss. She's brilliant, hardworking and wildly hysterical. I dare you to get through a chapter without wiping away tears of laughter. Tina reads her own audiobook and I highly recommend listening to it in her voice.…

That was the fastest 5.5 hours have ever flown by. Tina Fey on writing, acting, motherhood, SNL, and 30 Rock. She also does a mean Lorne Michaels impression.

At times poignant and meaningful. At other times, surprisingly tone deaf and uncomfortable. Her self-deprecating humor is enjoyable, but feels misguided and out-of-touch when she body shames herself and other, endorses harmful stereotypes…

It's worth the 4.5 hours....it really is! It may not be a 5* worthy book, but I gave it 5* anyway....like others I had already listened to Amy Pohlers, and Mindy Kahling...THIS BOOK was the first of the format. Tina Fey started this…

This audiobook had me laughing so hard at times. I liked that she had a lot of topics that I could relate to and, despite it being autobiographical, it was funny. I had already listened to Amy Poehler's book, Yes, Please. While these two…

This kind of humor doesn't work for me.:) I found it interesting, that grown up people find toilet jokes as funny as toddlers do. Is this something about us, humans? :) It is also interesting to see how the comedy industry works. Tina Fey…

Read by author. Nice to learn what she had to do before she found success.

Good, but not as funny or inventive as Amy Poehler's

Tina Fey and I were born the same year. We both promote the benefits of the "yes, and" improv sensibilities. And with that, the similarities end. Still, I did learn a great deal about Saturday Night Life, 30 Rock, and her creative…

Audio books that are narrated by the author are usually at the top of my list. Audio books that written by Tina Fey and narrated by Tina Fey are in a league all of their own. This audio book had me laughing so hard that there was one time…

This book is hard to put down. This book is relatable and filled with humor. Definitely worth the read!

So funny and even better with the audio book cause she's reading her own writing, and darn good writing it is, too. Audio books help motivate me to walk. This was LOL funny, so I've just been walking it though and, wow, that was some fast…

I wished this book was longer. Not really a biography, it is just some essays about various parts of her life and on a wide range of topics. I really enjoyed her writing and I hope she writes another book. I wouldn’t decribe myself as a…
