EDITORIAL REVIEWS

Product Description
THE EAGERLY AWAITED COLLECTION OF PERSONAL ESSAYS FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF MY HORIZONTAL LIFE

When Chelsea Handler needs to get a few things off her chest, she appeals to a higher power -- vodka. You would too if you found out that your boyfriend was having an affair with a Peekapoo or if you had to pretend to be honeymooning with your father in order to upgrade to first class. Welcome to Chelsea's world -- a place where absurdity reigns supreme and a quick wit is the best line of defense.

In this hilarious, deliciously skewed collection, Chelsea mines her past for stories about her family, relationships, and career that are at once singular and ridiculous. Whether she's convincing her third-grade class that she has been tapped to play Goldie Hawn's daughter in the sequel to Private Benjamin, deciding to be more egalitarian by dating a redhead, or looking out for a foulmouthed, rum-swilling little person who looks just like her...only smaller, Chelsea has a knack for getting herself into the most outrageous situations. Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea showcases the candor and irresistible turns of phrase that have made her one of the freshest voices in comedy today.

Very funny. I literally laughed out loud reading this book. Chelsea writes as if you're watching her do standup. It's a great book.

Chelsea and me...  
This book kept me laughing. Chelsea Handler is a great comedian and writer. I will recommend this book to everyone, I already have all my friends reading it and they all love it. I also recommend other book about relationshipsI Love You. Now What?: Falling in Love is a Mystery, Keeping It Isn't

Funny Book  
If you have seen Chelsea's show and enjoy it, then you will enjoy the book. Good Humor.

Almost shameful  
It is unfortunate that Ms Handlery does not choose to put her talent to good use. Instead she makes fun of people that does not look exactly like her or act identical to her. During this book she was able to laugh at and humiliate people from Mexico, China, people with red hair, people with pets and various religious beliefs to name a few. A true comedian can be truly funny without putting other people down. Ms Handlery has some serious growing up to do.
