COMMUNITY REVIEWS
very funny, excellent audio version submitted by 21621031390949 on June 27, 2020, 1:03pm Very funny book by Carrie Fisher (aka Princess Leia) about her addiction, bipolar mental illness, and growing up in Hollywood, the child of two mega-stars of the time. I’m sorry Carrie had such a dysfunctional life, but I’m grateful she was able to find the humor for us to enjoy. This is definitely a book to listen to rather than to read; Fisher has a great comedic delivery. Heartbreaking, but hopefully she found some release in writing this.
