    "Funny in some parts but crass"

    I found a lot of this book to be obnoxious. I laughed in parts, but, it was often pretty mean, gross, offensive, or crude humor.

    "Dud."

    I was disappointed with this download. I noticed it was in the top 10, wanted something lighthearted, and missed it in this book. Handler is not funny. She got a few snorts out of me, no LOLllers. She comes across, rather than funny, as bitchy, grating, and mean.

    Maybe that's her MO in standup. Some of you may like that brand of vodka in comedy.

    But for me, my recommendation is to use your credit elsewhere.

    "A long listen, for very little reward....."
    Would you try another book from Chelsea Handler and/or Chelsea Handler?

    No, I probably will stay clear from any books written by Chelsea Handler.
    Have no issues getting a book with her as a narrator, she truly did do a good job there.


    Has Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea turned you off from other books in this genre?

    No, but it will probably be a while before I order another autobiography style book from the entertainment section.


    Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Chelsea Handler?

    Chelsea Handler was the perfect narrator for this book, it is just a pity that most of the context came over as a self indulgent rant.


    You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?

    There are some parts in the book in which you can finally detect her brutally honest,funny and unafraid personality. But they are to far and few in-between the other parts that all come over as self absorbed, eager to name drop & whinny.

    "Just OK"
    Is there anything you would change about this book?

    I just expected to laugh more…


    Do you think Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

    I did not think this one was that great, so I wouldn't be interested in follow up.

    "A new fan of Chelsea's."
    If you could sum up Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea in three words, what would they be?

    Real, funny, relateable.


    What other book might you compare Are You There, Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea to and why?

    I think it's a unique book, at least right now I can't think of another to compare it to.


    What does Chelsea Handler bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

    Chelsea is a good narrarator, and it just adds to the story when the the author narrarates their own work. She made it seem effortless, I concentrated on the book rather than the performance.


    Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

    Several times she had me laughing out loud. She cracks me up, but she has a heart also. I'm not sure I knew that about her before the book. She can be so direct sometimes, she comes off as mean. Now I think that she's just being direct in her own way. I get her.


    Any additional comments?

    I'll be buying her other books after listening to this one. I've always liked Chelsea, but now I'm a fan of her as an author. The book is enjoyable and will crack you up, it did me.

    I love audiobooks. Reading has always been a struggle for me because of my poor eyesight. Audible changed my world and made my commutes a joy.

    "Just not that funny"

    Chelsea Handler can be very witty, but not in this book. Here she's just trying to shock you with how untamed she is. I'm not impressed or amused.

    "Mostly not funny"

    One or two decent stories, but mostly she's having a run at Jenny McCarthy's Crude-but-unfunny title.

    "Mostly entertaining."
    Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

    Depends on the friend. It is really funny, for the most part. There are some parts that are just too crass for me, but it didn't stop me from finishing the book. I thought she would be a better narrator; she's not horrible, but it was hard to keep listening in the beginning. Glad I did, her narration got better as the book went on.


    Would you listen to another book narrated by Chelsea Handler?

    Maybe.
