Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea Review
Not as funny as one of Chelsea Handler's other books- "My Horizontal Life"...but still worth reading if you like her work. A great beach read...definitely not for someone who is sensitive to sexual or racial jokes. Keep in mind this is a stand up comedian writing it so there are some off-color jokes (that are funny if you have the right attitude!)...I don't usually like slapstick humor or gross humor but I find her writing very funny. You definitely want to keep reading the book throughout.
Overall, a nice, light read! I brought this book on a trip- it was perfect for the plane.
It's a fun book to pass around between girlfriends!
Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea Overview
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.
