| | | | In a word: hilarious. . . . These are some of the funniest stories I have ever read and they're also some of the most unexpectedly heartfelt--Laura Zigman, author of "Animal Husbandry."
From The Publisher:
THE EAGERLY AWAITED COLLECTION OF PERSONAL ESSAYS FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF MY HORIZONTAL LIFE
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.
Annotation: Popular comedian Chelsea Handler shares some of her strange and amusing exploits in this collection of humor essays. Known for her ability to get herself into some rather strange situations, Handler has a quick wit and bawdy sense of humor that have earned her a spot as a top-ranking female comedian.

5 of 5 Absolutely hilarious! Wednesday, March 18, 2009 J. Jones from Roanoke, VA
This book is one of the funniest I've ever read. I laughed out loud all the way through it. Before I was even finished with it, I went online and ordered "My Hoizontal Life" by Chelsea Handler. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone with a sense of humor! Was this review helpful?
5 of 5 I laughed so hard I cried. Saturday, December 27, 2008 Brian from Poughkeepsie, NY
This is one of the funniest books I have read in a long time. I brought it to the beach and read it before my vacation was over. I literally laughed out loud in some parts and had tears coming out of my eyes in others. The book is written in a very conversational style, which I enjoy. If you know Chelsea Handler and enjoy her humor, you will love this book. If you don't know her, here is your chance to discover her. Was this review helpful?
