Are You There Vodka, It’s Me Chelsea – AQR

[  Mood: Sleepy ]
[ Currently: Dealing with a sick toddler ]

Chelsea Handler is a comedienne and actress who focuses on writing about her life. And revealing details you didn’t really need to know. One of her earlier books chronicled her one night stands.

This book looks at Chelsea’s relationships with men, her family and friends. She shares stories about being pulled over while driving intoxicated, taking her father on vacation and being taken by a midget con-woman.

Handler embellishes the stories and mixes in her sarcastic, crude sense of humour. And believe me, she has a potty mouth that a sailor would envy. Handler is not Anne of Green Gables, but you can’t help but like her. She turns this sarcastic, crude eye on both others and herself. No one is safe from her, at times, selfish, self-centered diatribes. I laughed outloud more than once.

The book on CD that I listened to was read by the author, further enhacing the experience. Her delivery was geniuine, and as a reader (or should it be listner), I had no trouble visualizing what was happening.

Worth the time, but do not listen to this near the little ones or easily offended.
