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.

 Get ready to pee your pants!! May 13, 2008
I loved this book! I would agree that it is not as good as her first one, but I still laughed my butt off! I am a huge Chelsea Handler fan and I think she is an amazing women. Get this book!!
 A bit of a disappointment. May 12, 2008
After reading "My Horizontal Life" I was really anticipating this book. It was a bit of a letdown. It's not bad by any means, but it certainly isn't nearly as entertaining. I would say this is definitely a "save your money and check it out at the library" type of book. I loaned it to a friend and she's had a hard time slogging through it too.
 Love Chelsea, but... May 12, 2008

My main complaint with this book is the fact that is POORLY edited. Some pages have several tyopgrpahical errors, and who ever editied it does not know how to use commas. I could have done a better job in my sleep. Quick lesson for her editors. If a sentance uses a conjunction in it, it only needs a comma if there is a new subject. Like, "Chelsea's book is not funny and poorly edited." And "Chelsea's book is not funny, and it is poorly edited." See what I did there?
Also, oh yeah, I love her! I watch her show all the time and love the vulgarity. But she's just ranting in this book. She's mean to her family and gets on kicks using certain words. Like within about 5 pages, she called someone an "a**hole" about 5 times. I mean, parts are funny, but I can't get past her meanness to a family that loves her and all the gramatical errors and typos.
Funniest book you will ever read!! May 12, 2008
You have to buy this book!! You must read it close to a bathroom because you will lose bladder control...it is absolutely hysterical.Chelsea is a genius, she tells it how it is and lays everything out there for all to see. Every chapter is filled with laugh out loud lines, you just cant help it.
So Funny! xD May 12, 2008
