"Bossypants" by Tina Fey

The best parts of this memoir, in my opinion and in no particular order, are:
  1. learning how Fey got that scar on her jaw.
  2. her stories of working at Second City and Saturday Night Live, including her appearances as a certain vice presidential candidate.
  3. her observations on the treatment of women in comedy and show business.
I would call this a light memoir since large parts of her life are omitted.  She admitted to a lot of shortcomings and praised many of her former coworkers, which I liked.  I still think she and Amy Poehler are the best anchors that "Weekend Update" has ever had.
