The Girl With The Lower Back Tattoo by Amy Schumer

If you're expecting The Girl With The Lower Back Tattoo by Amy Schumer to be funny, think again.  It's not really funny.  This is more of a story of her life with some funny moments thrown in.  I don't think I laughed out loud even once.  However, I'm not sorry I read it.  She's been through some horrible things.  Some of her stories were very touching.  For example, the stories about her dad and his MS.  She went from being well off as a kid to losing most of it and now she's famous.  She's very much a girl power kind of person.  Not that she's anit-man though either.  She's not.  It just feels as though she wants to empower women to be strong on their own.  I get that.  Despite her wealth, a lot of her stories have a very "I'm just like you" kind of feel.  She seems like a very likable person.  The one surprising thing that she revealed is that she is an introvert.  I would have never guessed.  It was interesting getting to know her as Amy the human being instead of Amy the comedian.  I give this book 3 out of 5 stars.
