So I signed up to request this book in June (The same time as Tina Fey's "Bossypants")... and I was number NINETY FIVE on the list. I mean, seriously? So I FINALLY got this book a few weeks ago and couldn't wait to read it. Brandon and I watched "Parks and Recreation", her latest show, last year and I thought she was a hilarious character. She was also always a funny character when she would act on Saturday Night Live and in movies that I have seen her act in, so I wanted to read her book.
So, the way I described it to Brandon was that there are autobiographies that make you think more of the person, and autobiographies that make you think less of a person. This was not in the first category. I've just come to realize while reading these books just how broken these famous people are. I also have realized that the creative types of people that become actors usually are willing to do anything to become famous, including many many drugs. There's only so many times you can read that before you start skimming. But actors will always feel like they need to please someone, and will always do what it takes to stay relevant.
So, I was disappointed. I mean I loved watching her in other movies! But now I won't be able to see her the same way.
