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


5 stars Histerically Funny!! Laugh out Loud, a Must READ.
This book made me laugh out loud.. its great, I would recommend to all who want to enjoy a good book. I just finished with "Are you there, vodka? Its Me, Chelsea" and found it not as funny but still good. Highly recommend both.. Can't wait for her next book.


1 stars Poorly Written
Skip this book. First of all, it's poorly written. Her stories take off on too many tangents. Secondly, after a while, I grew annoyed that each story was just about the same thing, over and over again. No growth, just one sloppy, drunk night after another with questionable men.


5 stars Makes you laugh
Great read for the beach. I won't be able to look at M&M's the same ever again!


5 stars Cleverly written ....
After reading Chelsea Handler's second book (Are you there Vodka? It's me Chelsea), I became an instant fan of her writing. So naturally when I heard that she had another book before, I had to get that one as well. I was not let down at all by her writing in this book either. If you're looking for a quick read kind of book, this is good. If you're also looking for a book to poke fun of having one night stands, buy this book!!!I highly recommend it :)


5 stars I am still laughing!!!!
I love Chelsea Handler and have watched her over the years on E! and on Girls Behaving Badly. This book is better than I could have expected. It is laugh out loud funny! Literally! My husband wants to read it after me simply after watching me laugh so hard and reading him a few excerpts. I have people at worked in line to borrow it after him. Love Chelsea, love the book and can't wait to start her new book!
