Yes Please by Amy Poehler

Yes Please

by Amy Poehler

The New York Times number one bestseller from the Saturday Night Live and Parks and Recreation star.

In Amy Poehler's highly anticipated memoir, Yes Please, she offers up a big juicy stew of personal stories, funny bits on sex and love and friendship and parenthood and real life advice (some useful, some not so much).

Powered by Amy's charming and hilarious, biting yet wise voice, Yes Please is a book full of words to live by.

I loved it because I'm still on a high after binging all of Parks & Rec earlier this year, but I'm also disappointed that it didn't give me a great sense of who Amy Poehler is. Reading Mindy Kaling's first book back before The Mindy Project started made me want to be her best friend. Yes Please had plenty of bits that made me smile and laugh out loud and I was more pleased than I ought to be to find out Leslie Knope and Ann Perkins are close friends in real life, but I never got the sense we were hearing Amy's actual voice.
