My Horizontal Life: A Collection of One-Night Stands
by: Chelsea Handler
|
Editorial Review:
Product Description:
In this raucous collection of true-life stories, actress and comedian Chelsea Handler recounts her time spent in the social trenches with that wild, strange, irresistible, and often gratifying beast: the one-night stand.You've either done it or know someone who has: the one-night stand, the familiar outcome of a night spent at a bar, sometimes the sole payoff for your friend's irritating wedding, or the only relief from a disastrous vacation. Often embarrassing and uncomfortable, occasionally outlandish, but most times just a necessary and irresistible evil, the one-night stand is a social rite as old as sex itself and as common as a bar stool.Enter Chelsea Handler. Gorgeous, sharp, and anything but shy, Chelsea loves men and lots of them. My Horizontal Life chronicles her romp through the different bedrooms of a variety of suitors, a no-holds-barred account of what can happen between a man and a sometimes very intoxicated, outgoing woman during one night of passion. From her short fling with a Vegas stripper to her even shorter dalliance with a well-endowed little person, from her uncomfortable tryst with a cruise ship performer to her misguided rebound with a man who likes to play leather dress-up, Chelsea recalls the highs and lows of her one-night stands with hilarious honesty. Encouraged by her motley collection of friends (aka: her partners in crime) but challenged by her family members (who at times find themselves a surprise part of the encounter), Chelsea hits bottom and bounces back, unafraid to share the gritty details. My Horizontal Life is one guilty pleasure you won't be ashamed to talk about in the morning.
I thought this was such a funny book. Not for the faint of heart, but if you are a Chelsea Handler fan, you'll love this book. I can hear her saying and doing some of the things she describes, well written and true to Chelsea.

A very funny book! Ms. Handler is as funny in print as she is on her late night show!
Very enjoyable!

Sadly I liked the book. I feel a little voyeuristic! Not sure if that is spelled correctly. This book reminds me a lot of all the years in my 20's I don't remember very well. :)

This is a laugh out loud funny book. I wish it were 700 pages. I highly recommend reading this book, it is soooooo funny. I personally liked this book better than "Are You There Vodka..." I think I had it read in about two days because I seriously didn't want to put it down.

I had seen Chelsea's show on E! several times, and figured that if she wrote about her one night stands, it was bound to incite a giggle or two. Boy did I underestimate! I actually brought this into work (shhhh!) and had to stifle my laughter....and I was not entirely successful. The way she describes things and the vernacular she uses are simply hilarious and I think most people who read this have a similar story or two. I also read her other boook (Are You There, Vodka?) but I prefer this one for its laugh-out-loudability. A must-read for anyone who is not uptight about one night stands or casual sex (or at least reading about them).
