The Chuy Bravo advice book, spun from the television show Chelsea Lately (E! network), is a humorous look at fashion, love, music, finance, friendship, etc. from slightly out of focus binoculars. From the male perspective, executive producer Tom Brunelle might be a comic genius. From the ladies book club perspective—maybe not. Expect a slightly raunchy stab at sexual innuendo in pop culture. If you are a Clay Aiken fan, dislike bathroom humor, or have transgender friends—you might pass on the 17...more

Read this to complete the Chelsea Handler oeuvre. This dumb, amusing, and sporadically clever book supposedly from Handler's little man sidekick, Chuy Bravo, gives Bravo's "crotch-high perspective" on life matters, including money, romance, music, and family. Sample tip: "If you serve food buffet-style, make sure you have plenty of serving utensils on hand. Trust me, getting casserole stains out of a toilet brush is not an easy task."

This is one of those gag gift, bathroom books you pick up for...more

This book is was so much fun to read. I woke my husband up with laughter on several occasions. Chelsea says the things you've probably thought before, but didn't dare to say. She reminds you not to take yourself too seriously.

This book was just what it is called. It's a tiny little book full of useless information....but so worth the few dollars for it. It is quite the comical little book, and you'd be surprised the things you will learn from it.
Beth
I would not have spent money on this book. Had I actually purchased it and not borrowed it from the library, I would've been mad that I wasted $15. It was a fun, (very) quick read.
Betsy
Awful! I was looking forward to another book to compliment the Chelsea series. This WAS NOT it! I wish I hadn't bothered, this was such a waste of time., and so not funny.
Brittany
I chuckled a couple of times in the 20 minutes it took me to read this generally retarded book. Glad I got it on paperbackswap and didn't pay $14 for it.
Rory
Terrible, terrible, terrible. Chuy is much better either as the butt of Chelsea Handler's jokes on "Chelsea Lately," or in the question-and-answer exchange they have. Never in a book.
Vaanessa
I love Chuy.
He is so funny on the show,
i wish he was on the roundtable.
this book is certainly worth the money; because it is sooooooooo funny.
Erin
Not so good! He should stick to just being Chelseas Nugget...It was literally a list of his obnoxious ideas...
Jessey
want it!!! Got it at Borders.

Ok, this book was not worth the 14.99 i spent on it, I read the entire book at lunch. Was alittle funny, motly nonsence......A waste of time!!!

Chuy Bravo imparts some major life lessons about corn dogs and scoring with the ladies. It's a MUST READ!

Umm… I am a fan of Chelsea Lately, but this book is OK at best. There are a few funny “Nuggets” (If you don’t smile while listening to the ‘Golden Girls’ theme song “Thank You for being a Friend”, you’re dead inside). However, a lot of these seem like thrown away jokes from the show (some of them have been used).

You can probably read this book in a day (2 at most); but I only recommend it if you are Obsessed w/ Chelsea and Co. And as she would say: If that is the case, you really need to take a...more
Amanda
not as funny as chelsea books honestly.
Lindsy
I read this book in one sitting and I found it to be entertaining. It was mostly witty one-liners and non sense but made me laugh on more than a few occassions.
Marisa
As someone who is head over heels in love with everything that Chelsea Handler touches, I had high hopes for this book. I didn't expect it to be a literary classic, but I assumed it was going to be funny. Not only was it not really funny, but it wasn't worth what I paid for it. Most of the pages had about 20 words on it. It doesn't take a lot to amuse me so it speaks volumes that this did not. I'd say he should stick to being the butt of jokes and rethink his ability and desire to make jokes. Wa...more
Heather
Very Funny
Lisa
Very silly. Cute.
Lectus
Really Chuy? Chelsea doesn't pay you enough on the show that you needed to kill a few tress to publish this book?

I am giving one star because...because... because there is not a option to give a zero!
Diana
Out of sheer curiousity I picked up this book at Borders and not only dis I finish it in 15 minutes...I think I laughed maybe twice. I'm glad I dsn't buy it! I'll stick the Chelsea Handler books from now on.
Becca
Just a humorous bundle of quotes from Chelsea Lately's very own silly little nugget, Chuy Bravo.
Angie
Very silly, but it took me only 20 minutes to read and it gave me a few good laughs.

Now famous as the personal assistant of basic-cable TV hostess Chelsea Handler, Chuy Bravo's path to Hollywood stardom was long and arduous—mainly because he has little nugget legs, so it takes him twice as long to get anywhere.

Born Jesus Melgoza, Chuy's first exposure to Hollywood was as a young man, when the production of The Three Amigos rolled into his tiny Mexican village, which led to a temp...more
