A review by hgoravec
Wishful Drinking by Carrie Fisher
emotional
funny
lighthearted
fast-paced
Had this on my list for a while because Carrie Fisher. Finally decided to read it because I hadn’t used any of my hoopla borrows for the month and didn’t want to lose them, but wanted something short.
This is only about 3 hours long, and is adapted from her one-woman show. It feels like a stand up routine in a fun way. It is sad reading this after she’s passed, and her mother as well since her mother is such a prominent character as well - as mothers are.
The ending is quite funny, and definitely earned.
Is it a particularly impactful or insightful book? No, but it was nice to spend a couple hours with Ms Fisher again.
