I read Tina Fey’s book earlier this year and was really
excited to read it. I think Tina Fey has
been hilariously funny on SNL as both an actor and a writer. I also liked her comedy, “30 Rock”, for the
first few seasons before it got all messy and weird. Well, I should have kept that in mind before
picking up Ms. Fey’s book. I had such
high hopes for it, but in many, many places, the book was very scattered. It’s almost as if parts of the book were just
following Ms. Fey’s train of thought down a long, winding path and actively
tried to lose its readers. These types
of passages made me think of the last seasons of “30 Rock” and made me realize
why they were as messy as they were – because that’s how the writers think,
apparently.
There were some parts that were funny, but overall I was
really disappointed in this book.
Considering Ms. Fey’s celebrated writing for TV, I was certainly
expecting much more.
