Oh, Amy. You wonderful person, you. There's a lot to love about this book. It's funny (naturally) and brutally honest (as one would expect) and full of take-it-or-leave-it advice (your mileage may vary). Most of the advice is worth taking--not all--but lots. My favorites were "every mother needs a wife" and "treat your career like a bad boyfriend" in addition to her stuff about silencing the demon that tells you you're not pretty or worth anything. Oof. That's some good stuff right there. The SNL/UCB chapters were super juicy and the Parks and Rec chapter made me cry. Amy's acrostic poem to Tina is everything you'd expect and then some. 
 I'm not a huge fan of her occasional stream of conscious ranting or that she constantly complained about having to write/finish the book, but everything else is aces. The book itself is high quality, too, with awesome end papers and glossy pages and full-color photos. (Oh my gosh, the photos.) 
 In the great holy trinity of books from my favorite ladies (Bossypants/Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?/Yes Please), I adore that their books and writing seem to be reflective of who they are as individuals. There are differences in styles and beliefs and jokes, but they all believe in supporting one another and other women and the rest of the world. I'm glad I live in a world where Tina and Mindy and Amy (and soooooo many others) are alive and writing. More, please.
