About this listen

With the winning, upbeat candor that has made her show on of the most popular and honored daytime shows on the air, beloved talk show host and comedian Ellen DeGeneres shares her views on life, love, and American Idol.

"I've experienced a whole lot the last few years and I have a lot to share. So I hope that you'll take a moment to sit back, relax and enjoy the words I've put together for you in this book. I think you'll find I've left no stone unturned, no door unopened, no window unbroken, no rug unvacuumed, no ivories untickled. What I'm saying is, let us begin, shall we?"

Seriously...I'm Kidding is a lively, hilarious, and often sweetly poignant look at the life of the much-loved entertainer as she opens up about her personal life, her talk show, and more.

Praise for Seriously...I'm Kidding

"Fans will not be disappointed...[DeGeneres's] trademark wit and openness shine through and through." (Kirkus)

But I can't help but feel this was a rushed effort, for either passing time or merely making money. I love Ellen and her humour but I have to say I wasn't all that enamoured by the book. I promise I'm not a sourpuss.

I love Ellen

Since I like Ellen DeGeneres’ comedy and performance, I like her book too. It’s her style, although I was a little disappointed compared to her first book, ‘The Funny Thing is...’.

Good enough

I know that there wasn't exactly a story line in there and Ellen didn't present detailed information about her own personal life. But she did share the knowledge and truths what she had learned over these years. I love her monologues on the show and this book is basically that. She shares her thoughts and beliefs and observations in a very positive and funny way. It is a relaxing and uplifting book, which reminds us that it is alright to have fun and act silly from time to time. It is not a serious book and you will not gain deep rooted messages to think about throughout your years, it is simply a little time to stop and enjoy the funnier side of life. I enjoyed listening to her and anyone who loves Ellen, will enjoy it, too.

Favorite of Ellen
