Are you there Vodka, its me, Chelsea - Chealse Handler


LOVE LOVE LOVE this book. I have just got into her tv show, Chelsea Lately, and its really good. This book is laugh out loud funny. It reminds me of Russell Brand's booky wook, but better.

Chelsea has a very dry sense of humour and has some epic balls.

Currently ploughing my way through A Storm of Swords on my Kindle, then it will be A Feast for Crows. BTW I hate Sansa Stark, if ever there was a character who deserve to die a horrible lingering death it's her.

I've just finished 'The Happy Home for Broken Hearts' by Rowan Coleman. It's one of those gently romantic ones about a young widow (late thirties) who finds a new lease of life. It's definitely one of the best of that type that I've read.

I'm reading a Storm of Swords too. Sansa Stark is just so incredibly stupid. I'm also really liking Jaime Lannister which must be soo wrong.

Finished the new Dresden Files book, Ghost Story.


I read Game of Thrones after the series finished; can't decide whether to read the others now or wait till after the TV show does them.

Blood Harvest by S J Bolton, brilliant! I started it last night and am now three-quarters of the way through, but am trying to slow down a bit

The Understudy by David NIcholls (he of Starter for Ten and One Day fame).

Only just started and already had a few smirks, particularly liked the "terrifying [local] pub, the Lady Macbeth, a floodlit Maxiumum Sceurity Wing that had unaccountably ben issued with a drinks licence"

Mike Echols - Brother Tony's Boys after seeing in the "Disturbing Books" thread.

I really wish I hadn't paid £7.99 for it for my Kindle.

While the premise of this True Crime book is indeed extremely disturbing, I really dislike the way it's been written. It's extremely repetitive and I find myself skipping swathes of it.

Half the number of pages and it would have been a good book, in my opinion. Which is probably the amount of it I'm actually reading.

As it is, I feel obliged to finish it because of what it cost me.

You'll have an awful long wait.

"The History Of Sex ((But No As We Know It))" by J.R. Daeschner.

I wish I had read this last year and before I went to Pompeii.

"The Governor's Cat" by Sir William Jackson.

I am revisting this lovely book about Solo/Solie.

One of my favourites. I found "The Progress Of Julius" by Daphne du Maurier the other day in a charity shop and will be reading that next.

I am slowly collecting all the du Maurier books.

Tai Pan - James Clavell
I rather enjoyed "Tai Pan" as a teenager. I've not read it since.
