wicked funny! ( )

Laugh out loud funny. If you are from a disfunctional family-who isn't-you will find this book hilarious! I love the author's blunt outlook on the most embarassing situations. I read this book from cover to cover in one night, I couldn't put it down. ( )

Each chapter of this book was akin to listening to a comedian's set. And like any routine, there were some that made me laugh and some I scratched my head on. Chelsea Handler takes vignettes from her life and turns them into comedy, no matter what...poking fun at her family, friends, and herself. In my opinion, the author is a Candace Bushnell wannabe. It's a light read and you definitely can put down and pick up this book at any time and not miss a beat. ( )

She has her funny moments. Not bad. ( )

How did this become published? And why is it selling so many copies? While it's mildly funny, and totally sarcastic, I didn't really find any purpose to this book. It's written somewhat as a diary of experiences, none of which were exceptional.

First of all, I picked this up (and a copy of My Horizontal Life: A Collection of One Night Stands) on a recommendation from my sister. I happened to listen to this one before reading the first one. (I'm not sure that I'll read the other, but since it's on my Kindle and I paid money for it, I might try.) I'm aware that some people really like Chelsea. My husband for one, likes to watch her show on late night T.V. I'm not that fond of it myself, but still thought I'd give this book a try.

I did finish the book, and I did occasionally laugh out loud, other than that, I can't say anything else about it. There's no real story line, and it certainly didn't leave me wanting more. I also didn't make me think, or leave me with anything. Sorry, but no recommendations for this one from me! ( )
