Bossypants review round-up
Posted by Stephen Dumughn in Book News, News, Sphere
Following the serial and interview in the Sunday Times and Guardian, the reviews have been flooding in for Tina Fey's hysterical autobiography, Bossypants. Here's a round up of some of the best:
‘It is Fey's gift to be clever and human at once. Bossypants manages to be self-deprecating without being winsome. She has much of Nora Ephron about her, but is a bit tougher and sharper… Her chapter on career and children is rueful and profound…How do I love Tina Fey. Let me count the ways …’ Evening Standard
‘If she has a point to make, if she feels something deeply, she can make it funny. That’s why she is a great comedian.’ The Times
‘She is biting, snappy, droll’ Sunday Times
‘There are some hugely funny bits, and some inspiring bits, and some nerdishly interesting bits, and some bits that read like essays in the New Yorker’ Observer
‘Caught in the act of howling with laughter while reading Tina Fey's addictive new autobiography Bossypants at my desk I felt compelled to turn the supposed red-handedness into a convincing Easy Living-related activity and report on why it's such a great read…’ Easy Living
‘Fey's comic voice transfers to print’ Irish Times
