“if my life wasn’t funny it would just be true, and that is unacceptable.”
as a mentally ill woman who loves to joke about her trauma, carrie fisher was so important to me. her loss was crushing, and i feel her absence every day; this book is a perfect example of why. she's candid, she's hilarious, she jokes about things that would make other people grimace. she makes you want to give your anxiety or depression or bipolar the middle finger and live better while acknowledging that okay, yeah, maybe you're a little crazy!
a perfect, quick little read that made me laugh out loud and fall more in love with my absolute favorite actress.
