Like catching up with an old friend

Well written, and extremely genuine, this book is such an easy read/listen because of Amy’s writing style and ease which she holds herself. Very entertaining and enjoyable.

A Genuine, Relatable, Well Told Story

Having read some of the prior reviews, I was a tad skeptical about purchasing this audiobook. However, with a love of Any Poehler both as a person and an actress, I was more than intrigued to have a listen.

Her stories are relatable, honest, and well told. Listening to Amy talk about her past is a wonderful experience, alongside her passion & wisdom learned from her shortcomings make for a wonderful listening experience.

Strongly reccomend to anyone whether a fan of Poehler or not. All around amend enjoyable :)

Fun and funny, just like Amy Poehler

Her performance is great, the book is funny... perhaps lacking a little in content considering how much time was spent covering how much she didn't like writing the book.
