dark funny lighthearted fast-paced

You can hear Carrie Fisher's voice coming through the pages. A great example of 'you have to laugh otherwise you'd cry'.

3.5

This was fun, though a bit abrasive in places. I think you can really tell that this is an adaptation of a stage show, and that holds it back in some ways, but it was super short and funny and the audio was a nice companion while I made dinner.

There are several jokes in here, specifically regarding sexual orientation and race that may rub you the wrong way. There not hateful, but they do hit a little weird at times.
