Book by Ellen


I was expecting something more substantial — maybe a memoir or biography — but this book didn’t deliver. I’m a bit disappointed. It mostly feels like Ellen’s usual chit-chats, like she’s talking directly to us. Honestly, it comes across more like a comic book.

If you’re looking for a light, casual read to take your mind off daily stress, maybe this will work. But whether you enjoy it really depends on your sense of humor and what kind of jokes make you laugh.

I also read that the audio version is somewhat better, as the jokes don’t quite come through well in writing.


While reading some chapters, I felt like she was just trying to pad the book with unnecessary content — a bit of a waste of the reader’s time.

Even though I’m a fan of the Ellen DeGeneres Show, I’ll definitely think twice before buying any other book by her. :(
