Bossypants By Tina Fey Cover Image

In a crowded field of memoirs written by comedians, this one's the gold standard. Tina Fey is even funnier on the page than she is on the screen.

This is my go-to book. I've read it five times. Steve Martin's memoirs of his time as a stand-up comic are a gift to anyone who's interested in what it takes to be funny.
