My Horizontal Life by Chelsea Handler: A Collection of One Night Stands


Skinimax for readers!

I'm not the biggest Chelsea Handler fan. I watch Chelsea Lately occasionally but that's about it. I haven't seen any of her traditional stand up. She seems to have a dry sarcastic sense of humor which I have to be in the mood for. But, I happen to really enjoy her writing. She compiles books from a collection of chronological short stories. Each book is based on a theme, and each chapter is one story start to finish. It is the perfect type of book for busy people who only get a few minutes here or there. Its satisfying to be able to pick up your book, not remember what the last thing you read, and it not matter.

I call it Skinimax for readers because it is a little naughty, but completely harmless. I get to peek into a life that I never had and live a little through Chelsea vicariously. I have had a ridiculous few first dates and no one night stands, so I love to read about all the fun I missed in my youth. My favorite story is the one where she ends up trying to crawl through her kitchen window while wearing a giant green M&M costume (not on Halloween) SOMEHOW, an ex boyfriend finds her stuck half way, ass out, green tights, no panties.

It is a fun guilty pleasure book for ladies who don't like cheesy romance novels. If your favorite character in Sex & the City is Samantha-- Read this book!
