Tina Fey Bossypants Tina Fey 9780316056861 Books

Like an episode of SNL, Tina Fey's book reads like a quick succession of sketch comedies, some funnier than others. But I laughed out loud quite a bit. It got to be so bad, that I was forced to stop listening to the audio version (read by Fey herself) during work hours as my loud giggles, snickers, and snorts were unprofessional, to say the least.

For me, the most enjoyable parts centered around the backstage shenanigans and politics of Saturday Night Live and 30 Rock. Hearing Tina recount her first day as a writer on SNL, when she draws the short straw and has to be the one to tell host Sylvester Stallone that he needs to "enunciate" more, was pure comedy gold, and I was at once laughing at her, as well as laughing with her.

There's nothing too deep here. Even the story of how she received the trademark scar on her cheek is glossed over with (funny) jokes and snide remarks. But did we really expect anything else from the most recognizable anchor of the Weekend Update?

If you can get the audio version, do. It's worth it to hear Fey's self-deprecating voice narrate her own words.

Tina Fey Bossypants Tina Fey 9780316056861 Books Reviews


Very clever, Tina. Tina is another one of my favorite people and I enjoyed reading her book. Read it in a day. Humor runs through her veins. It just comes natural to her which is good for all of us who think she's a hoot. (That's the old lady in me talking; young people would never say "Hoot." Anyway, it was fun; she's fun. I like fun. I like to laugh, but not when I have four broken ribs.
I’m a big fan of Tina Fey, and her work on SNL and 30 Rock. It’s been a few years since this book came out and I finally decided to give it a read. I suppose I was expecting something a little more substantial than this surface-level romp through the major events in her life. I liked the read, but it felt like a highlights reel of stories she’s told at parties. Would love something more in-depth about the entertainment business from her perspective at some point. For now, I can recommend this if you want a quick read that isn’t too demanding.
This was such a delight to read. I've read it twice now, and I wish I had the talent to do it justice in my review.

The book is structured more or less chronologically, which makes sense with an autobiography. However, there are several things which set it apart from the average autobiography, or even biography. Firstly, it is very, very funny. Laugh out loud funny, and that doesn't happen very often. And secondly, it was surprisingly insightful for something billed as comedy. It is obvious that Fey is very observant watcher of the human species, and is introspective enough to offer us genuine insight into what it's like to live in the world today. There were certainly insights that made me reflect on my own life, without it ever being preachy.

I read Bossypants the first time before watching 30 Rock, and there are a couple of chapters which didn't mean a lot as I didn't know the characters or the players. I still loved it, but it made more sense reading it the second time after watching 30 Rock.

What becomes clear when reading this book, is just how smart, sassy and capable Fey is. She is humble in many ways, which makes her humour so approachable. But there is a clear strength of character which allows her to follow through on projects despite difficulties or obstacles. So while this is very, very funny, and a joy to read, it is also quite inspirational. I'm giving a copy to a friend's teenage daughter who wants to be a writer. I think it will be a hit!
I love Tina Fey, she is the greatest. I expected this book to be the greatest. It reads like you are sitting with her in a bar and she is telling you little stories from her life. As stories in a bar tend to go, some are far wittier and more interesting than others. It is a pleasant little book that is about as deep as most SNL skits. If you can buy it at a discount, as I did, then it's a quick read and will bring a few laughs, and enough smiles to justify a couple of hours of reading.
What a letdown, this is the least profound and insightful nonfiction book I think I've ever read. It's not a memoir, not an autobiography as it is a collection of essays that reveal absolutely nothing about its author, Tina Fey. It was as TIna Fey wrote it as an SNL character. The writing is so self aware, cringe-worthy in its self-deprecation. The only section that garnered any genuine emotion is when she (very briefly) talked about the incident that caused the scar on her face. The stories completely lack any depth, reveal nothing about what makes Tina Fey tick. The stories she chooses to share--her stint working the front desk of a decrepit YMCA, literally following a college crush up a mountain--aren't interesting. I think this is what happened
Fey's Agent/Manager You know, there's so much interest in you, what makes you tick. You should write a book about yourself.
Fey No! No one's interested in me. I wouldn't know what to write. My private life is private--I don't want to share stories about me and my family to the world.
Fey's Agent/Manager I think the publisher would be willing to pay an advance in the high six figures.
Fey Well, let me think about it.
So this is what we got, a group of stories that have nothing to do with each other, told by the character "Tina Fey" (versus the real person), that are about as deep as a mud puddle. Big disappointment.
Tina Fey's book was fine. That's it. I had high expectations after hearing how it was laugh out loud funny, but even if I went in with no expectations I don't think this would have gotten more than 3 stars from me. I didn't laugh out loud once and only occasionally cracked a smile The book is a collection of essays/stories that lacked focus as a whole and didn't have much to offer individually. I wasn't expecting anything profound, but they had nothing to say and the sarcastic humor often just felt too mean to be funny. I'm a fan of Tina Fey and find her hilarious in general, but the humor didn't come through her book for me. Some stories were enjoyable but I was left disappointed as a whole. I still gave it 3 stars because I think it could be a great read for the right reader, but for me it was just okay.
