    "I love Ellen but this is pretty boring"
    Is there anything you would change about this book?

    Not many interesting stories. A couple attempts at humor but not what I expected.


    Have you listened to any of Ellen DeGeneres’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

    No just on her talk show.

    No


    Have you listened to any of Ellen DeGeneres’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

    Yes, loved prior works


    Any additional comments?

    Love Ellen's comedy and previous books. But this one was like she was writing because she was forced to, for whatever reasons of which I have no clue to guess what they may be.

    "Does Audible give refunds?"
    Any additional comments?

    Let me preface: I'm a BIG fan of Ellen. This book, however, was horrible. It was filled with non-sense and ramblings. I skipped entire chapters, multiple times. I do not need to hear Ellen's random thoughts as she sits on a beach. I can do that myself. For free. And I definitely don't want to hear it as I'm on a crowded bus, during my commute.

    I thought this would be more thought-provoking, laugh-out-loud funny. Instead it was Ellen digressing in these tangents that annoyed me and didn't even make sense. Have a good listen to the sample first. It doesn't get any better than this, trust me.

    I'm disappointed I spent my Audible credit on this. I want my money back.

    "Love Ellen!.. but maybe not as a narrator of book"

    I love Ellen's comedy but as a narrator of a written book not so much. I may have liked the book more if I just used Ellen's voice in my head rather than her real voice. It wasnt much like her anyways, it was a bit monotoned and boring at times... I would definitely recommend the book to others though, just not in audio form.

    "I LOVE YOU ELLEN"

    Funniest Freaking Book In The World!!!!

    A lot of it was silly.
    A lot of it made no sense.
    A lot of it was meant to be read not listened to.

    But above all else the book made me laugh my ass off. Literally laughing out loud. This book is funny on so many different levels and just hearing Ellen's voice brightens up my day.

    I watch Ellens show every day and support her in every way possible.

    Thankyou Ellen for writing this hilarious book and for making me smile and laugh each and every day.

    GREAT AUDIOBOOK!!! A MUST-LISTEN!!!!!!!!!

    "We get it - your funny."
    What would have made Seriously...I'm Kidding better?

    If she would tell stories more from the heart. She didn't reveal anything interesting or in depth which is why one would buy a book from someone like her. Whats beyond Americas funny girl.


    What could Ellen DeGeneres have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

    Shared more of her instead of her writing team of sometimes boring jokes.


    Would you be willing to try another one of Ellen DeGeneres???s performances?

    I'll stick to her show and cover girl ads.


    What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

    dissappointment.


    Any additional comments?

    errr ahhh mmmm

    "Hilarious"
    What made the experience of listening to Seriously...I'm Kidding the most enjoyable?

    Ellen doesn't just read the paragraphs.... it's more like she's acting or delivering a stand-up monologue. I loved it.


    What did you like best about this story?

    It's a short, funny book, so it's great on Audible. Complex literature is not well suited to the audio format.


    Have you listened to any of Ellen DeGeneres’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

    I hadn't listened to/read any of her previous books, but I love her TV show.


    Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

    Sure, that would've been great. But because I only listen to Audible books in my car, it took me about 3 days to finish it. It made me laugh even while in traffic.


    Any additional comments?

    If you like Ellen or love comedy in general, you'll really enjoy the book.
