Tina Fey\u2019s autobiography, \u201cBossypants,\u201d gives the reader a look into the world of sketch comedy through a series of sophisticatedly sarcastic stories. I have always felt as though Tina Fey, star and writer of NBC\u2019s \u201c30 Rock\u201d and former head writer on Saturday Night Live, can do no wrong. Therefore, I went into with the highest of expectations\u2014the only disappointment being that the autobiography was only 275 pages.<\/p>\n
Tina Fey wrote\u00a0 as if she was telling her story to an old friend over drinks and a large amount of fried appetizers. Fey shares stories starting from her childhood on to when she was writing and filming a television series while planning her young daughter\u2019s birthday party. Mixed in with her personal stories, Fey shares her opinions on topics such as body image versus Photoshop, meeting Sarah Palin, motherhood, and fashion. Scattered along with the stories, Fey includes pictures from her childhood and family, the set of \u201c30 Rock,\u201d magazine covers, and original scripts from Saturday Night Live.<\/p>\n
From beginning to end, I kept a smile on my face with its witty, writing. In my experience reading Bossypants, there were many occasions where I had to set the book down to have my own little laugh riot, and then calm myself down, and continue reading. However, not all of the book left me in a fit of giggles. A number of Fey\u2019s stories are focused on her experiences and how she got the world views and morals that she has, which forced me to think about how I feel about some controversial topics.<\/p>\n
