funny reflective fast-paced

4.0

I love her sense of humor and I’m very drawn to people that are real and own their shit. That makes her a hero to me.  I loved the book. Some doesn’t age well, but like Carrie would care about that. I just wish it was longer. Also did the audiobook and highly recommend because her reading her life and her accents as well as her impression of her mom is well worth it.

Come for Carrie Fisher’s narration, stay for Carrie Fisher’s incredible impression of her mother.
