Editorial/Description:

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.


Customer Reviews:

Very Funny!   December 2, 2008
This book is really funny, the way she tells stories is hilarious. Her other book "Are you there Vodka It's me Chelsea?" is really funny too. I wish she had more books.


Very funny   December 2, 2008
I am not very familiar with Chelsea Handler but I bought this book because of the reviews. I found this book hard to put down, it was hilarious from the 1st chapter. I am looking forward to reading her other books!


I never got this book!!!!! so I am NOT happy.   November 29, 2008
I never received this iteam, and there was no where I could find to help track it down, get a refund, or anything. So I am pretty upset about this entire transaction.


Good but not great   November 20, 2008
As Chelsea's first book, it was ok, but it was not as good as her latest one, "Hello Vodka, It's Me Chelsea". If you are going to read them both, read this one first and then Hello Vodka. If you read it, the other way around, you may be disappointed.


Amazing   November 18, 2008
This book could very well be the funniest book that i have ever read. I def. recommend it for a funny read!
