Product Description
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.

5 out of 5 stars WOW!!! This Book is FrEaKiN Hilarious!!!!!   October 14, 2008
I have been watching chelsea handler for a while now on E! and Girls Behaving Badly. And decided to check out her first book. I found it pretty funny, very blunt, but mostly a female read. I'm glad i gave her a second chance with Are You There Vodka. I literally read this book in a day! and for a 200+ page book for me that's almost impossible. It was so F***ing Funny. During the Jumped chapter i was reading to my sister in a chelsea like voice and she almost pissed her pants!!! I'm really eager for her third book. And i definitely recommend this book to anyone looking for a fun, easy, and entertaining read for male or female!!! Love Ya Chelsea!!! Great job!! :)


4 out of 5 stars Sexy little read   October 11, 2008
Handler does a great job with this collection of essays. I was looking for a Burrough's type of book, but was pleasantly surprised with her own type of light hearted humor, that was laced with an alcoholocis twist. This is more of a humor book than one of addiction or vices, so if you are looking for that type of drama, pass this one up. Still it was a delightful read that will keep you turning pages one after another.


3 out of 5 stars An Alcohol Soaked Memoir   October 11, 2008
 31 out of 31 found this review helpful

Chelsea Handler's memoir is slight slushed. Handler is a great standup comic and an actress (In the Motherhood). However in the audio biography, she sound wet behind the ears.

She is a wonderful story teller, however its like telling a great joke with no punch line. Handler's slice of life with a twist is not everyone's cut of tea, its mostly bitter Vodka

However, she showcases she is a survivor in this audio presenation,but not a great narrator, However Chelsea, next time try a stand up comedy album, it would be more enjoyable

5 out of 5 stars It's Laugh Out Loud Funny   October 11, 2008
A really funny, quick read. Some of it was a little over the top, but definitely entertaining and worth it. I listened to it on audio, and Chelsea's voice cracked me up. She sounded just like a good friend of mine, and it was like I was listening to her go through all of these funny exploits.


5 out of 5 stars The funniest book I have ever read!!!!!!!!!!   October 10, 2008
This is literally the funniest book I have ever read! I couldn't wait to share it with all of my girlfriends! It is hard to find someone so relatable and honest. If they had 10 stars, I would've given it 10! Excellent..good for a laugh so hard you'll cry!
