its-me-chelsea

Funny. Light. Smart assed. Sensational.

All 4 of these words convey how I feel about the supremely talented Chelsea Handler. Chels (as I call her, pretending like I ACTUALLY know her) is the star of her own TV show on the E! Network called “Chelsea Lately”. She is also the woman I dream of working with one day and also having as my best friend.

Until that day arrives, I’ll have to settle for her latest book, entitled “Are You There Vodka? It’s Me, Chelsea“.

With summer here and every weekend booked, it’s time to get a hard cover to take along with you. Beach time, pool time, Grandma’s birthday party at the home! It’s a rare sight to see me laugh out loud with a book in my right hand, and zero liquor glass in the other. Heck, I barely laugh out loud when reading in general. However this light hearted, often silly and easy read has tears strolling down my face. Her antics, suggestions and storytelling are nothing short than brilliant.


Some of the topics include (and are not limited to cast members on Homorazzi!)

  • Dating “ginger” men (Patrick, Rich)
  • Getting a shady back rub at an all woman, all Asian masseuse parlor (Jonny)
  • Telling lies as a youth about being in a movie with Goldie Hawn (Adam)
  • Killing a new boyfriend’s goldfish and replacing it with an impostor of a different shade of gold (Dan)
  • Being arrested while driving and using your sister’s I.D. as your fake I.D. (Brian….kidding!)
  • Going to a BDay party for someone you don’t even like and re-gifting….(I’m pretty sure most of us)

The laughs and antics go on and on. By far, this is the best book I’ve read all year. If you’re like me, and need to escape from time to time into a world crazier than your own, than this bud’s book’s for you. Guaranteed you’re going to love it. And if reading isn’t your thing, you can also download it onto your iPhone through iTunes….with the author narrating it! One word- BRILLIANT. Happy reading!
