Life Will Be the Death of Me: . . . and you too!

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER â€¢ The funny, sad, super-honest, all-true story of Chelsea Handlerâ€™s year of self-discoveryâ€”featuring a nerdily brilliant psychiatrist, a shaman, four Chow Chows, some well-placed security cameras, various family members (living and departed), friends, assistants, and a lot of edibles

A SKIMM READS PICK â€¢ â€œThis will be one of your favorite books of all time.â€â€”Amy Schumer

In a haze of vape smoke on a rare windy night in L.A. in the fall of 2016, Chelsea Handler daydreams about what life will be like with a woman in the White House. AndÂ then DonaldÂ Trump happens. In a torpor of despair, she decides that sheâ€™s had enough of the privileged bubble sheâ€™s lived inâ€”a bubble within a bubbleâ€”and that itâ€™s time to make some changes, both in her personal life and in the world at large.

At home, she embarks on a year of self-sufficiencyâ€”learning how to work the remote, how to pick up dog shit, where to find the toaster. She meets her match in an earnest, brainy psychiatrist and enters into therapy, prepared to do the heavy lifting required to look within and make sense of a childhood marked by love and loss and to figure out why people are afraid of her. She becomes politically activeâ€”finding her voice as an advocate for change, having difficult conversations, and energizing her base. In the process, she develops a healthy fixation on Special Counsel Robert Mueller and, through unflinching self-reflection and psychologicalÂ excavation, unearthsÂ some glittering truths that light up the road ahead.Â

Thrillingly honest, insightful, and deeply, darkly funny, ChelseaÂ Handlerâ€™s memoir keepsÂ readers laughing, even as it inspires us to look within and ask ourselves what really matters in our own lives.

Praise for Life Will Be the Death of Me

â€œI always wondered what it would be like to watch Chelsea Handler in session with her therapist. Now I know.â€â€”Ellen DeGeneres

â€œI love this book not just because it made me laugh or because I learned that I feel the same way about certain people in politics as Chelsea does. I love this book because I feel like I finally really got to know Chelsea Handler after all these years. Thank you for sharing, Chelsea!â€â€”Tiffany Haddish
