Description

Welcome to Chelsea Handler's world—a place where absurdity reigns supreme and a quick wit is the best line of defense.

When Chelsea Handler needs to get a few things off her chest, she appeals to a higher power—vodka. Seems reasonable, when considering that she discovered her boyfriend was having an affair with a Peekapoo and she had to pretend to be honeymooning with her father in order to upgrade to first class.

In this highly entertaining, 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 chosen 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.

    This was clearly written before she became woke. It was an easy read and kept my attention which is more than I can say for a lot of other books.

    Quick easy read. Nothing too deep here, but I doubt anyone expected that. More enjoyable than her 1st book IMO.
  • So funny and honest!

    Chelsea is shamelessly honest - basically exactly what I strive to be as I’m way too self-conscious. I also like that she speaks intelligently in her vocabulary and her fast responses. I admire her so much! All of her books are great; the first 3 are my favorites.
  • the best author!!

    Wow! I can not contain myself when I read her books. If I am in a public place people are looking at me wondering what the hell is wrong with me because I just burst out laughing so much. This is not the kind of book you can just have a little giggle — you better be ready to pee a little when you laugh.
  • Very good read

    This is my second book I have read by Chelsea handler and I will continue to read all of them. I enjoy her sense of human and her willingness to let it all hang out

    This book killed me! 😂 I laughed basically through the whole thing! Can't wait to read more of her books. Watching her on tv just isn't good enough. If we ever met in person, we would be friend instantly. I will most definitely read this book again!

    WARNING: Extremely funny! Don't read in public places or you will get strange looks because you will laugh out loud in hysterics! This book was the best and funniest book I've ever read! I found myself actually laughing out loud in the middle of a 300 person lecture class at Alabama! I would highly recommend this book to anyone with a sense of humor that doesn't mind a little off-color humor!
