My Horizontal Life : A Collection of One Night Stands

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


My review


rating: 2 of 5 stars
I read this book in one sitting which may have tainted my final opinion of it. I think Chelsea Handler is a brilliant, insightful, and hilarious person but these stories of her one night stands made me feel sad for how little self respect she had in her early-mid twenties. I still laughed quite a bit, but overall I just felt really sorry her. I admire that she was able to use these awful experiences in a book and for comedic purposes, but her written voice takes on a neutral tone until the final few stories when she begins to share her feelings about the consequences of her actions. A worthwhile read but not as good as her second book.
