Book Review of My Horizontal Life: A Collection of One-Night Stands

My Horizontal Life: A Collection of One-Night Stands
bethnorthwest avatar reviewed on


This was an easy and fun read. It's definitely not for the sensitive or remotely prudish, and let go of any expectations of literary greatness before jumping in. The author is a comedian and the "sex and alcohol" bit is her shtick, and I can only guess that it's amped up and embellished for laughs and shock value here. Although I wouldn't make this a permanent fixture on my bookshelf and will admit to hiding it from my husband, I found it entertaining and laughed out loud a couple of times. Reading it is a little like watching The Bachelorette on the "guilty pleasure" level.
