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

 Hilarious! July 24, 2008
Genafer (Wyoming)
I love the comedy of Chelsea Handler, I am a big fan of hers... This book was just as funny as her first, I loved every moment of reading it and so have my friends... I can't wait to get it back from them so I can read it again! (and I usually don't read books more than once)
Fun, Fun, Fun! July 24, 2008

For those of us who love and enjoy Chelsea Handler, this is a MUST READ! A funny, relaxing and very "Chelsea-esque" look into Chelsea's life. I bought it at the airport to read on my one week vacation, and finished in on the flight. Fast-paced, and a real laugh out loud kinda book. You won't be disappointed!
Chelsea Handler book - Hilarious!! July 24, 2008

I absolutely loved this book I laughed out loud in the doctor's waiting room several times! It's a must read, very entertaining!! Chelsea is a fabulous writer!
 Overrated. July 23, 2008
M. Glinsky (Arlington, TX United States)
Not sure if it's as good as her prior book, which I'd still like to read. But found this to be very disjointed, and more sad than funny. I like to drink as much (if not more) than the next person, but not to the point of repeatedly peeing myself, as she does. That's just sort of pathetic.

I love Chelsea Handler but was a bit disappointed with this book. It was funny but I rarely laughed aloud. I think that I would have enjoyed the book more had I listened to it on audio tape read by Chelsea herself.
