Being a huge fan of Tina Fey this book had been on my to-read list for a long time. Sadly, it didn't live up to my hopes. Admittedly a little slow, I had to force myself through it, just for the sake of saying I've read it, but I kept hoping I would find something better in the next chapter.
Defiantly written for older people, she lists off so many actors who I have no idea who they are I feel a little lost but don't care enough to google them all. Plus, if it were a movie it would be rated R for all the language. Why did she feel the need to swear so much?
I felt like I was reading a biography about Liz Lemon - from the foot phobia even down to the piss in jars - but I guess you are supposed to write about what you know, right?
There is basically an entire chapter about how much she loves gays. Okay, we get it, you're a liberal.
She also goes on about how racism is terrible, but still all the while making racist jokes throughout the entire book.
Also, I feel like 75% of it is trying to argue that women are funny - but she's not very convincing in that argument in author form.
If you are a fan of SNL or 30 Rock it's a decent read with some interesting bits. But all in all it just seems like a random string of thoughts with blimps of someone's life history, with an abrupt empty ending
