I have never been a SS fan. I never thought she was that funny. Her book is okay. She's not a book writer, she's a joke writer, a show writer. But reading about her as a comedian made me like her more. She is just a regular lady who is sort of dude-like and wants to laugh. Lots of the book is cliche, the part about her life is so poorly organized. But things get interesting when she starts talking about her comedy philosophy. 
 I hate Kathy Griffin and Chelsea Handler because they are mean and take a lot of easy jokes. I always used to think SS took a lot of cheap shots, too. And sometimes she says the easiest thing to say, the easiest way to say it. But she's not trying to be anything she's not. She is true to her self, pretty funny, and aware of herself. In her book she is, anyway.
