Bossypants – Tina Fey

Tina Fey delivers a home run here, telling her story of going from her childhood home in Pennsylvania to the University of Virginia to Chicago and Second City and, finally, to New York for Saturday Night Live and 30 Rock.  Fey easily weaves humor throughout her story while still hitting upon social commentary of the role of women in comedy and trying to be successful, both in the workplace and at home, as a working mother.

Reading this book made me realize how much I miss having 30 Rock on the air, not so much for the show itself, but for having a weekly dose of Tina Fey in my life.  While the book delivered, it was sadly over too quickly.
