I recently started reading Bossypants by Tina Fey (30 RockSaturday Night Live).  Tina Fey talks about her odd experiences as a teenager, including befriending a 23-year-old lesbian couple.  She has expressed her views about life, gender roles, and much more in her edgy book.  She also talks about judgement, and offers these wise words of wisdom:

“To say I’m an overrated troll, when you have never even seen me guard a bridge, is patently unfair.”
This snippet is a microcosm of Tina Fey's brand of comedy: sarcastic, unexpected, and a little ironic.  This book is not as funny as her on-screen material, but it appeals to me more than any other comedic author whose books I have read, with the exception of Stephen Colbert.
