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 of those 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 all 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!
Mini-Review
Readers may come for the Sarah Palin impression but they’ll stay for the clever, witty, and insightful memoir that is Bossypants. Tina Fey’s narration enhanced the reading experience and, in my opinion, is the only way to read Bossypants. Also, despite being written 13 years ago Tina Fey’s comments on politics and women being just as funny as men are still just as relevant today. Overall, Bossypants was a fun easy listen leaving an impression after having finished reading.

Interesting to hear this one still rings true 13 years later. Not sure if that’s good or bad. 🙂
