When I found out that this book wasn't actually written by Chelsea Handler, but by her friends and family, I was a bit disappointed. I figured it wouldn't be that funny, and would instead be filled with annoying sycophantic anecdotes. Well, I was right with respect to the anecdotes, but the stories were actually pretty funny (at times). As with all of Handler-related comedy, it sometimes crosses the line into extremely inappropriate, gross, or quite simply, annoying. But, this book was a great view into Handler's life - and the incredible generosity she has toward her friends and family, even if it comes with a huge price tag of needing to be constantly on your toes ready for yet another practical joke. I would think having a friend like this in your life would become tiresome quickly, but it also sounds like she regularly takes her friends on all expense paid trips to Cabo, so I suppose that might be worth putting up with all the shenanigans.
