Once in a generation a woman comes along who changes everything. Tina Fey is not that woman, but she met that woman once and acted weird around her.
Before 30 Rock, Mean Girls and '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 half-hearted 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 in this hilarious memoir, and proves what we've all suspected: you're no one until someone calls you bossy.

MEDIA REVIEWS
A masterpiece in comedy writing...I was hooked from the first word - Sunday Telegraph

My love for the divine Tina Fey is river deep, mountain high ... Bossypants is as hilarious, candid and self-deprecating as fangirls like me would expect - Lauren Laverne, Grazia
Wry, clever, biting and brilliant - Daily Telegraph

“A hilarious autobiography”
There's not much to say about Tina Fey's book, except that it is one of the funniest, warmest and most enjoyable reads I've had in a long time.
“Bossypants”
Quite simple Fey is one of the funniest people to ever walk the Earth. 30 Rock is a masterpiece of network television comedy and Bossypants is very much in the same tradition. At one point reading it I got a stitch... More
