Publisher's summary

With the winning, upbeat candor that has made her show on of the most popular and honored daytime shows on the air, beloved talk show host and comedian Ellen DeGeneres shares her views on life, love, and American Idol.

"I've experienced a whole lot the last few years and I have a lot to share. So I hope that you'll take a moment to sit back, relax and enjoy the words I've put together for you in this book. I think you'll find I've left no stone unturned, no door unopened, no window unbroken, no rug unvacuumed, no ivories untickled. What I'm saying is, let us begin, shall we?"

Seriously...I'm Kidding is a lively, hilarious, and often sweetly poignant look at the life of the much-loved entertainer as she opens up about her personal life, her talk show, and more.

Praise for Seriously...I'm Kidding

"DeGeneres's amiably oddball riffs on everything from kale to catwalks to Jesus will make fans smile." (People)

"Whatever the topic, DeGeneres's compulsively readable style will appeal to fans old and new." (Publishers Weekly)

"Fans will not be disappointed...[DeGeneres's] trademark wit and openness shine through and through." (Kirkus)

Great book!

I really liked this book, and also recommend Girls Walks into a bar and the funny thing is. This, though is my overall favorite between the three. The author is really funny, and creative. Though, I wish there were more interesting topics of the chapters of this book. Overall, this book is truly amazing and super fun to listen to.

Just what you need

Ellen is true to her self in this light hearted and fun loving book. It's one of the most awsome feel good books I've read. It helps you forget about the problems around you and just laugh at her silliness for a bit. So if you need to de-stress defiantly give this one a listen.

A great lighthearted read/listen.

Loved this book for it’s funny light feel. Sometimes you don’t need extra stress or want to get too deep into a subject. That is why I’ve enjoyed this book on a number of occasions.

You really will LOL

Would you listen to Seriously...I'm Kidding again? Why?

I have always liked Ellen Degeneres. Hearing herself narrate her own book is fantastic! Her humor is fun and her outlook on life is wonderful.

it's Ellen!

I can't think of any other way to listen to an Ellen book without her reading it. The book somehow seems more genuine than it otherwise be with another narrator. good show Ellen!
