I Hate Everyone, Except You
I Hate Everyone, Except You | Clinton Kelly
22 posts | 36 read | 39 to read
Bestselling author and television host Clinton Kelly pens a hilariously candid, deliciously snarky collection of essays about his journey from awkward kid to slightly-less-awkward adult. Clinton Kelly is probably best known for teaching women how to make their butts look smaller. But in I Hate Everyone, Except You, he reveals some heretofore-unknown secrets about himself, like that hes a finicky connoisseur of 1980s pornography, a disillusioned critic of New Jerseys premier water parks, and perhaps the worlds least enthused high-school commencement speaker. Whether hes throwing his baby sister in the air to jumpstart her cheerleading career or heroically rescuing his best friend from death by mud bath, Clinton leaps lifes social hurdles with aplomb. With his signature wit, he shares his unique ability to navigate the stickiest of situations, like deciding whether its acceptable to eat chicken wings with a fork on live television (spoiler: its not). Clinton delves into all these topicsand many morein this thoroughly unabashedly frank and uproarious collection.

I loved Clinton Kelly on What Not to Wear. That was one of my favorite shows. This book has a very conversational tone. It is a series of essays. Some are about What Not to Wear, but many are about his rise in show business. I found his life to be fascinating.

This was an impulse library book for me- it was available and I didn‘t have a current audiobook. It was pithy and fun and quick. Didn‘t have much depth, but I didn‘t need it to.

I had never heard of Clinton Kelly (apparently he‘s been on tv shows), but I found his book hilarious. I have an over-sharing, filterless gay friend of whom this reminds me completely. I laughed my way through it, but I know it isn‘t for everyone.

I love Clinton Kelly and this book was very entertaining. Definitely too much info about his junk, but I liked the book (maybe because he read it on #audiobook) #nonfiction

Laura317 Love Clinton Kelly on What Not to Wear. I‘ll check this out. 6y

It‘s a lot funny and a little salty. Does Clinton Kelly like Stacy London? Sometimes...

My version of the bathroom selfie. That‘s me! At work. Reflected off my monitor, which may be my BAE as I spend all my time marveling at all the things it shows me. Also, it makes my hair appear way less frizzy. Clinton would approve.

Before I listened to this audiobook I didn't know who Clinton Kelly was, but still he had me laughing out loud! I'm a fan now!

So-so to a pick. Some parts were LOL funny. A little TMI about a certain body part. Eww! I love his snarky-ness though-especially the part about Paula Deen. 😂 This is a book you really need to listen to, instead of read.

Crystallinegirl Oo, a Clinton Kelly book! I'll have to pick this one up! 7y

I'm finding this to be surprisingly funny, with several laugh out loud moments so far. It's making me look forward to my drive to work tomorrow. #currentlylistening

Bailed after 3 chapters and a brief skim of the rest when I realized it wasn't what I was hoping. WNTW fans can read the 3rd chapter about how he got the job and skip the rest. "Thoroughly unabashedly frank" is an understatement, maybe it's my Midwest coming out but I don't need extensive discussions on male anatomy. I'm sure his eyebrow raising stories will have an audience but it's not me.

I'm enjoying this, but found a huge error that I'm surprised was not caught by an editor. The Defense of Marriage Act was overturned on June 26, 2013. I remember it because it was also the day my father died.

OrangeMooseReads That's annoying 8y

This book was fun, funny, and entertaining. But I feel as if it definitely opened with his strongest piece, making it impossible for any of the subsequent essays to live up to the hilarity.

I enjoyed this. I'm a fan of Clinton Kelly and will be seeing him on tour tomorrow, so I wanted to read it before I got to meet him. A memoir. I felt like Clinton was having coffee with me and telling me the stories from his life. Enjoyable.

saresmoore I'm also a fan and looking forward to this book! It's very cool that you will get to meet him! 8y
