Synopsis

Mix 1 oz. Chelsea Handler, 1.5 oz. Nora Ephron, finish with a twist of Tina Fey, and you get Ali in Wonderland, the uproarious, revealing, and heartfelt memoir from acclaimed actress and comedian Ali Wentworth. Whether spilling secrets about her quintessentially WASPy upbringing (and her delicious rebellion against it), reminiscing about her Seinfeld “Schmoopie” days and her appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show, The View, and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, or baring the details of starting a family alongside husband George Stephanopoulos, one thing is for sure—Ali has the unsurpassable humor and warmth of a born storyteller with a story to tell: the quirky, flavorful, surprising, and sometimes scandalous Ali in Wonderland.“Ali Wentworth is funny and warm and crazy all at once. Like Barbara Eden. But on something. Like crystal meth.” —Alec Baldwin

I was really looking forward to reading Ali in Wonderland, but it was a big disappointment. I've really liked Ali Wentworth in everything I've seen her do on TV, but in her book I never got the laugh factory going and didn't know when to really believe in her written words or not. I now know this is......more

I fell in love with Ali Wentworth when Charlie Rose interviewed her to promote this book. She told Charlie that her husband, George takes their children to church every Sunday. Charlie asked if she joins them, she said, "Oh no, that's mommy time!" I instantly fell in love with her! Ali in Wonderland......more

With so many mixed reviews, how will you know if you will like this book or not? The best indicator, in my opinion, is if you liked In Living Color or Head Case. Both of those shows were patently absurd, and that's what Alexandra Wentworth is about. If you are looking for a true memoir, or a punch l......more
