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'.

4.0

I often don’t read memoirs or anything of the sort, but I had to do it for Carrie. I’m glad I did because she’s hilarious in a way that you only get if you’re somewhat insane. It feels like you’re sitting with her at 11pm eating a lot of carbs while she tells all these stories.
