    "I get Chelsea..."

    I think you have to have a certain type of sense of humor to enjoy this book. It's probably not for everyone. For me, it was perfect. I often found myself cracking up by myself in my cubicle, pulling over on the freeway because I was laughing so hard I was crying, and pausing my ipod in the airport so I didn't look like a crazy person when I started to laugh aloud. I didn’t really know who Chelsea Handler was until I downloaded this book, but now I'm DVR'ing her show every night. Can a book be too funny?...this one almost is.

    "If you enjoy Chelsea Lately..."

    ...then listen to this book! If you do not enjoy Chelsea Handler's style of humor, then go find something else to listen too. Duh. I laughed out loud multiple times, and many of my peers at the gym think I am crazy, I'm sure. Regardless, I did enjoy this book. The key to Chelsea's humor is: (almost) nothing is off limits.

    "Hysterical"

    It was like a 6-hour Chelsea Lately marathon...I liked that Chelsea was not only the author, but also the narrator. The book really made me laugh.

    "What a hoot!"

    I loved this book! I had to quit reading it on the bus because I found myself laughing out loud! Chelsea reminds me of a young Kathy Griffin.

    "don't waste your book credit"

    I was hoping for a good laugh when I purchased this book, but it was a waste of a credit. She is not funny, her storys are really boring, and her voice is horrible to listen to for long periods of time.

    "are you there Chelsea?"

    The book is 7 or 8 stories. Some are funny and cute, like when Chelsea makes up a story about being in the sequel to Private Benjamin for her 12 year old classmates, and how an enterprising Chelsea babysat for a terror with an intense sugar high, and when she got a massage from a Chinese place that had only the most basic English skills.
    Some of the stories are just sad like a birthday party for a 30 year old woman she hardly knew, a DUI arrest, a fist fight with teenagers, and a disrespectful portrait of her father which she refers to as Bitchtits.
    Lacking, is any cohesion or theme to the chaotic events that happen to her. What's left is a troubled,wise cracking, self absorbed, TV star who needs to know why she is on this earth.
    A much better choice is Steve Martin's memoir.

    "Some good laughs"

    There are some good laughs here, no doubt hence the 4 stars....sadly the stories are so disjointed and painfully random that it is a little hard to beleive. And who knew, Chelsea has a really bad habit of ditching people. Surprised she has any friends left!

    "Not very funny"

    This book was good for a few laughs, but I was very underwhelmed by the lack of humor. Chelsea Handler is much funnier in person than she is in print. Don't waste your money on this book.

    "Made a loooong trip feel short!"

    This was the perfect book for a 14 hour drive to Florida a couple of months ago. She has an amazing gift to appeal to both men and women with her humor. When I reached my destination, I listened to it again with the adult women in my family. It is that funny.
