Okay, I like Ellen DeGeneres. Her show is fun to watch and she's amazingly talented. This audiobook, however, was disappointing. The short chapters (50+ on three discs) were silly and most of them more irritating than amusing.
I like her emphasis on being kind - that's a wonderful part of her appeal. It was very interesting to hear about her stint on American Idol and how hard it was to judge people's performing. She is a very nurturing, encouraging person.
Chapter 29 was noises for the audiobook listeners . . . and incredibly obnoxious. There were definitely some amusing parts, and twice I laughed, but this just lacked the substance of her TV show hosting.
