“But the main thing I’ve learned, I learned all by myself, no help needed. I learned not to get my tongue pierced. Because if you’re getting it pierced for the reason why I think you’re getting it pierced and you’re not good at that thing to begin with, no little piece of jewelry is going to save the day.”
God she’s brilliant - there’s way too many funny lines to include! Can’t wait to read her other books 😆

While I love listening to autobiographies read by the author, she did read this as though it was one of her travelling performances. ie lots of yelling at the end of a sentence for emphasis.
RIP Carrie <3

The subject matter is quite deep, with Carrie going into detail about her struggles with drugs, alcohol and her mental health- but she adds a comedic spin to it which makes this book hilarious in places.
It’s not just about Star Wars, although she does talk about it fondly, and also not so fondly, being a young 19 year old woman in the first film there were going to be some points when she felt uncomfortable. Like George Lucas telling her she couldn’t wear a bra as there’s no underwear in space!
Despite the fact it flip flops back and forth between elements of her life she feels are important to share, it’s a really easy read. It’s not difficult to read because of the length, the way it’s written, and Carrie’s infectious humour.
I really enjoyed this book and I would definitely recommend it if you want to find out more about everyone’s beloved space princess that wasn’t shown in her films.
5/5 stars!
