Are You There Vodka? It's Me, Chelsea

This is a laugh out loud, crass and often politically incorrect book!  Chelsea Handler, the main character and narrator is a comedienne and writer who drags us through some of her more embarrassing moments.  Chelsea has no shame, no filter and no remorse for her actions.  It is so funny!

The books structure is choppy and there is not a lot of cohesiveness within the story.  The worst part of the book was the ending - it is a total bust.  It just ends!  All of a sudden we are enjoying the story of her trip with her overweight father to Costa Rica, her smoking pot and then BAM! end of book.  The story of their trip didn't finish but the book did.  

I recommend this book for all who can laugh at things of a base or offensive nature.  If you are a person easily offended, don't read it.  I also recommend NOT reading it in bed, late at night, as your spouse will not appreciate the outbursts of laughter when he is trying to sleep.

Happy Reading!
