Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (and other concerns) by Mindy Kaling
I like Mindy Kaling on the The Office, and I think they use her character juuuuust enough. I did not know she was a writer… I never read the credits.
In the Funny Women Memoirish Book category, it’s not quite as strong as Fey’s Bossypants, but she’s funny. What’s good is good; the only weakness is there are some sections that really, really feel like filler. (e.g. several photos downloaded from her mobile demonstrating her tendency to use it as a mirror).
There’s some interesting commentary and storytelling about her journey to becoming a writer for The Office. I did not know she co-wrote and toured a two-woman show about Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, where she played Ben Affleck. So I’ve learned that, at the very least.
