Bossy Pants- Book

Bossypants | [Tina Fey]


Bossy Pants by Tina Fey

I like Tina Fey.  I love the way she makes fun of herself.  I like her sense of humor.  I am on that short list of people that like her tv show 30 Rock.  I remember the first year of 30 Rock I was reading a Tina Fey interview.  When she was asked how she felt about being labeled by TV Guide as the least attractive female lead in a tv show that year.  She said she had no doubt if TV Guide were at a bar and had 10-12 drinks TV Guide would want to sleep with her.  : >

This book is a comedic version of Tina's autobiography.  She starts with her mom being 40 year old when she was born.  Tells tales of how her mom found it difficult to explain getting her first period.  She tells of her trying to get boys to like her.  How many boys were interested in a pasty white girl with big thighs and a goofy perm on the top of her head?  That would be zero.

She talks candidly of her days on Saturday Night Life.  The start of 30 Rock and what it was like to play Sarah Palin.  She tells funny stories about having kids and breast feeding.  She admits she is not one that cares about her image.  She says she went to public school, has all her own face parts and left to her own devices dresses like someone that came to clean your aquarium.

If you like Tina Fey at all you will find this book often laugh out loud funny.  I liked it alot.
