Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea

This book is amazing. Her antidotes are so outrageous and funny. It is a really good way to juxtapose a stressful life by reading a few pages.

I almost didn't buy this book because The New York Times review mentioned Kathy Griffin. "The everywoman spirit of Kathy Griffin" is what's quoted on Amazon but I remember the wording slightly differently. Rest assured Chelsea Handler is nothing like Kathy Griffin. Or Sarah Silverman. Or Tina Fey. It's like the NYT tried to just drop in every comedy it girl it could think of. Get a thesaurus. Of people.

Chelsea is a comedian and her essays don't scuttle even as close to the thought-provoking tree as, say, David Sedaris. I have to admit my joy may have been related to so many recent skull-liquifying experiences with "humor" books. This one is funny. She has a schtick and you have to appreciate the vapid whore persona or you just won't get anything from it. But then why would you buy a book called Are You There, Vodka anyway?

this is honestly the funniest book i have ever read. i was at home by myself laughing histerically! i have even bought a couple for gifts. i absolutely LOVED it!

I have to say that this was probably the funniest book I've ever read. I could not put it down. It was hilarious! Chelsea Handler is so funny.

A must buy!

So, I'm a huge fan of Chelsea Handler and this book is clearly why....

Chelsea is amazing and laugh out loud funny... I don't often laugh out loud while reading, sometimes a little chuckle or giggle comes out, but with this one, I was almost crying I was laughing so hard...

She is very relatable; you laugh at her because you've seen yourself with your own friends in the situations she gets herself in ..

I suggest reading My Horizontal Life by her first, then this one. It's not necessary, but recommended!

Oh yea... and this book probably takes about 2 hours to read, once you start reading it, it's hard to put it down. it is the same with her other book...
