BOOK CLUB: Bossypants

Before she was head writer for SNL, or writing awesome comedies like Mean Girls, or developing and starring in her own hilarious sitcom called 30 Rock, Tina Fey was just an awkward adolescent theater nerd growing up in small town Pennsylvania. Now one of the most influential women in television, and one of the funniest people on the planet, Tina Fey has blessed us with her memoir. Sharing her thoughts on topics ranging from struggles of a working mother ("There's a drunk midget in my house") to her pursuit of physical beauty ("I once left a restaurant in the middle of dessert to get to Krispy Kreme before it closed") Tina Fey will have you laughing out loud for a good 3/4 of this book.

What are you waiting for? Go read it.

BOOK CLUB: Record Collecting for Girls

We were lucky enough to get our hands on an advance copy of Courtney E. Smith's Record Collecting for Girls, and we've been eagerly anticipating the day we could share this joy with the world. In the words of the very wise publishers of this book "Finally here is a voice that speaks to women – because girls get their hearts broken and make mix tapes about it, too."

Courtney is a veritable music nerd, in the best possible sense of the word. Drawing upon her years of experience at MTV and in the radio industry, Courtney explores what music can tell women about themselves, their relationships and life itself. She discusses topics ranging from guilty pleasure songs to the evolution of girl bands, weaving in her own personal stories and always speaking with humor and wit.




Check out the brilliant book trailer, then go buy yourself a copy.
