currently reading:
i am not sure about this one. i bought it thinking it would be a really good memoir. however, it isn't really reading like a memoir. sure she writes a bit about her childhood, growing up as a teenager in a traditional family, about being female in a male dominated profession, and motherhood i am sure she will barely touch that subject. she divulges very little and i find myself wanting more after each chapter has ended. here is this powerful woman who was the first female comedic writers on saturday night live, the boss of a successful tv show and an influential female comedian yet the book feels empty. instead, the book reads like a comedy sketch. it's funny but i want more than funny. it's enjoyable but i want to be inspired. it's concealing and i want self reflection. it isn't satisfying me and i am nearing the end.
