Amy Poehler is one of my favorite people on the whole planet, so of course, I'm excited out of my mind about this book! Seriously, Parks and Rec is one of my favorites and I'm basically what would happen if you put Leslie Knope and April Ludgate in a blender together. Will I read this? The answer is hell yeah!

I didn't realize she had a book coming out! I'll definitely have to check this one out. I loved Mindy Kaling's book and she writes so highly of Poehler plus Poehler's just plain funny!
