Bossypants by Tina Fey

Cyrus OBrien, November 13, 2012

Proving that Liz Lemon is merely a skewed version of herself, Tina had me laughing literally out loud at her tales of working the front desk at a YMCA, her stint in the traveling company of Second City, and how the gross-out writer room events from 30 Rock episode "Sun Tea" were 100% real. I have read and re-read Bossypants several times, each time enjoying it as if it were the first time I picked it up. Woefully embarrassing teenage years did her well!

The Sisters Brothers by Patrick deWitt

Cyrus OBrien, November 13, 2012

Darkly funny, with a sweetly charming narrator who happens to be half of a villainous pair of murderers for hire. There is violence and 19th century sex workers, but as the story takes place in the Wild West-era Oregon and California, so it's not out of place at all. It's not a difficult read, but I zoomed through it so quickly, it left me wishing there was a follow up!
