Reactions:
“With 3124 on my new SUV’s odometer, I was laughing so hard listening to Tina that I clipped a cement highway divider driving to work. That’s not the funny part. I kept on laughing. Tina Fey is like comedic Oxytocin. Buy this book. Keep both hands on the wheel.” – Warren
“I am enjoying this book just as much as 30 Rock. It’s brilliant and not particularly sappy, and Tina Fey does the reading of the book credit as well (some authors are not such great readers, but this is certainly not the case!).” – David
“She’s just amazing and I thoroughly enjoyed this book! She takes us from her life as a kid in Philly to writing/starring/producing 30 Rock with the sharp wit and self deprecation that we’ve come to know her for. It’s especially interesting to listen to what’s going on behind the scenes at SNL or 30 Rock and how certain decisions were made (Sarah Palin, casting 30 Rock, etc…). And of course, her sides are hilarious. I love it!” – S
“This is another book that I will listen to again and again. I bought this one because it was a best seller, having never watched her on SNL and watched 30 rock a handful of times I wasn’t sure what to expect. This has changed me into a 30 Rock fan as well as a Tina Fey fan and I really hope she writes another book!” – Karyn
“Tina Fey is one of my favorite performers, but her narrative is too “cute”.
She has so many interesting things to tell us but she rushes through, you would think she is in a hurry to finish reading the book.” – Gerald
“Not that this is a bad book because it wasn’t but just not what I was expecting. Tina does a great job narrating her own story but I would have liked to see more depth in her story.” – LeftyMom
