Ye. and that is what I would love to read more about Carrie Fischer This book was not what I expected from Carrie Fisher, considering I've read another of her books chronicling her mental illness and experiences. Though it began with a brief description of her shock treatments, it overall seemed more of a catalog of her famous family, and her celebrity friends.

J. Kirchner said For true Carrie Fisher fans. Bought it as a kindle deal & wasn't disappointed. Yes, she rambles a bit but she's like that hysterical aunt you can't help but love. Agreed with the other reviewers that it's short & she repeats some material, do consider that before paying full price.
