I was hoping this would get me out of a reading slump and guess what? It did!!
Who knew Carrie Fisher was so funny and had such a vivid and wild personality. I've only seen her in Star Wars and never knew she wrote, but this has been a surprisingly fun (surprisingly because she's talking about her addictions and the not so fun parts of life).
Like she said "I have to start by telling you that my entire existence could be summed up in one phrase. And that is: If my life wasn’t funny it would just be true, and that is unacceptable."

"Wishful Drinking" is a messy, thoughtful, chaotic, and absolutely brutally candid reflection on a life spent in the public eye. Carrie Fisher does not shy away from sharing her truth, for better or for worse.
