It is an indisputable fact that Tina Fey is a boss.

She is a hard working mom whose best friend is AMY POEHLER! Fey has worked (even at a YMCA) for everything she has and never gave up on her dreams. *Clearly a boss* (And she’s managed to do it all without a driver’s license!) — Misha D'Andrea
A must-read! Hilarity mixed with some actual great advice - Tina Fey is one impressive and very funny woman, and this is one enjoyable book. — Sarah Walcott
If you think Tina Fey is hilarious and perfect yet wonderfully relatable, than you are right. Read this book as proof. If you like reading about awkward days at youth theater, realizing your parents aren’t as scary as you thought they were, and what it is like to be mistaken for Sarah Palin then this is the book for you. — Molly Halpin
Description
Spirited and whip-smart, these laugh-out-loud autobiographical essays are "a masterpiece" from the Emmy Award-winning actress and comedy writer known for 30 Rock, Mean Girls, and SNL (Sunday Telegraph).
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 these 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 always 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!
