Wherever Chelsea Handler travels, one thing is certain: she always ends up in the land of the ridiculous. Now, in this uproarious collection, she 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.

Jealous, I'm too broke to see her this go around, but I got the VIP package when she did her Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang tour and it was an amazing experience.
i thought fifty shades of chartreuse was ha next book
She's been throwing that title and the Uganda title out for months when asked by people what the title would be, I knew it'd be one of the two. I'd have prefered the 50 shades one, but I guess if the book will be travel themed, this one makes more sense.
She's not the most successful female late night talk show host in history for nothing.
I'm surprised at the hate she gets on here seeing as this forum is basically nothing but gay guys. How a homosexual could not love this woman and the unflinching unapologetic love and support she's shown for the gay community is beyond me.
