Description

In this uproarious collection of travel essays, Chelsea Handler sneaks her sharp wit through airport security and delivers her most absurd and hilarious stories ever.

On safari in Africa, it's anyone's guess as to what's more dangerous: the wildlife or Chelsea. But whether she's fumbling the seduction of a guide by not knowing where tigers live (Asia, duh) or wearing a bathrobe into the bush because her clothes stopped fitting seven margaritas ago, she's always game for the next misadventure.

The situation gets down and dirty as she defiles a kayak in the Bahamas, and outright sweaty as she escapes from a German hospital on crutches. When things get truly scary, like finding herself stuck next to a passenger with bad breath, she knows she can rely on her family to make matters even worse. Thank goodness she has the devoted Chunk by her side-except for the time she loses him in Telluride.

Complete with answers to the most frequently asked traveler's questions, hot travel trips, and travel etiquette, none of which should be believed, Uganda Be Kidding Me has Chelsea taking on the world, one laugh-out-loud incident at a time.

    I would love to give this book a 4 maybe 4 1/2 however the mistakes overlooked by the editor made me want to punch someone in the face. I'm not an editor so how pathetic. Thanks for blowing it. Sincerely, Me.
  • Quite funny!

    This is my first book I've read by Chelsea handler and she does my disappoint. Her crude dirty humor is hilarious. I will be reading more books by her in the future.
  • It's classic Chelsea...

    Yet another hysterically funny book from the witty, smart, and clever Chelsea. Thanks for making me laugh out loud on a very quite plane ride from Houston to NYC. Look forward to the next installment....

    Another laugh out loud book by Handler leaves me wondering yet again who is more ridiculous, her for her outrageous travel antics, or me for paying to read about them. She does deliver with great whit self deprecating stories that make me lose a little more respect for her, but in a kind of feel-good way (in that I feel a little smarter that I'm not as dumb as her... Even my four year old knows the sun and moon are two different things.) P.S. photos in the first few chapters are visually assaulting, so beware of close neighbors getting a glimpse of your iPad if you're reading on an airplane as I was.

    Disappointing and almost seems forced. A few funny moments, but really lacking in content and ends in an abrupt way, which begs the question; was she on a deadline while writing this?

    I would like to have read about what Chelsea thinks her own boobies look like. Maybe a few more stories about smoking weed. I thought the stories were fragmented and incomplete.

    Without doubt one of the worst, tasteless books I have ever read. No redeeming value to it.
  • Light hearted, amusing

    Read this while recovering from surgery on medication. It is very light hearted and amusing. I do not like romance novels or mysteries so this did the trick. A little too crude for me at times and did make me want to have a margarita. I would recommend to people.
