"Does Not Disappoint"
Oh, Tina Fey, you live up to your reputation as a smart, strong, witty HAM (of the metaphorical variety, not the swine variety). ;oD This book had me laughing out loud as I completed my morning jogs...I am sure people thought I was insane. The biggest asset, to me, is how she can make a point without making a point. By deflecting what you might be "expecting to hear next" with humor, it makes the point even funnier. Okay...one last thing...Piss Jugs! REALLY???? Ew!
"HILARIOUS"
So funny about everyday day topics kile boys, make-up, female issues, jobs, family. So interesting about behind the scenes info on SNL & 30Rock. So great that her narration is like she is just talking with you as a friend. So good!!!
"Reading too fast for me"
I find Tina Fey hilarious and enjoy her writing very much. I'd read excerpts from this book and couldn't wait to get my hands on it. Although the content of the book lived up to my expectations, and I normally enjoy her voice and acting, I found the reading pace of this audio book too fast. I barely had time to digest each funny line before she was on to the next one, and that sort of ruined it for me. I wish I'd read the pdf along with her, to catch the nuances. Maybe I'll re-read it and try it that way!
"it's just...good"
It's funny, good, interesting and easy to listen to, though Fey's recording itself sounded much lower quality than many other audiobooks I have purchased. Her voice was recorded very flat and trebly, with a strong echo. Too bad... but the story itself, the pdf that goes with it, and Fey's narration are all still worth the purchase price.
"Best audio Bio"
This is the best audio bio I've heard. I didn't really know much about Tina Fey nor was I a big follower of hers, but her audio book had me laughing out loud too many time to count. If you want to laugh, laugh and laugh again, this is the audio book for you.
"Perfectly snarky"
I love Tina Fey and I think she is greatly under-appreciated by the country at large. 30 Rock is hysterical and creative and she has never been a part of anything that I thought was bad. Hearing her tell her own story is like getting to have a conversation with her. Her writing is good (and hilarious), her reading of her own writing is so fun, and she will have you running to your computer to pull up the downloadable PDF every time she mentions it. She made me laugh out loud so many times.
"so funny"
I love Tina Fey and really only knew a little about her from TV. This book gives the fan the insight as to why she is so funny. I love the personal stories about her upbringing.
"Wonderful listen"
As much as I love Tina Fey I was hesitant to read this book. However, after a friend highly recommended it I decided to give it a try and took it on vacation with me. I must have looked very stupid laughing out loud by the pool while listening to it.
Also I found it extremely uplifting. I think women should definitely listen to this book because it is calming and empowering. Even when you can feel the anxiety pouring trough her words, the lessons are extremely powerful.
A definite buy if you're wondering.
"OMG it's funny"
It's funny. It's funny. It's also feminist and progressive. She tells a story and you can't help laughing.
I recommend it for anyone who is interested in: TV, feminism, popular culture, SNL, 30 Rock, Tina Fey, New York, Comedy, Life, Laughter. Her voice is truly unique and to have the author read the book for Audible is awesome.
"Do not hesitate-- listen to this audiobook!"
I was already a big fan of Tina Fey, but now I've developed a severe crush. The book is wonderful, hysterical, heart warming, and just downright enjoyable. The audiobook made the experience even better. Listening to Fey's voice read the words she's written added an aspect to the entire experience that I would highly recommend to everyone. Fey clearly writes in a certain style, and small nuances could easily be missed if one chooses to read the book instead of listen to her narrate. I highly recommend reading this fantastic book and I even more highly recommend listening to Fey narrate it.
