Story
When Carrie Fisher recently discovered the journals she kept during the filming of the first Star Wars movie, she was astonished to see what they had preserved—plaintive love poems, unbridled musings with youthful naiveté, and a vulnerability that she barely recognized. Today, her fame as an author, actress, and pop-culture icon is indisputable, but in 1977, Carrie Fisher was just a teenager with an all-consuming crush on her costar, Harrison Ford.

On May 25, 1977, a problem-plagued, budget-straining, independent science-fiction film opened in a mere 32 American movie theatres.

Simply put, George Lucas is one of the most influential filmmakers of the past 50 years.

All one hundred billion stars and fifty undecillion tons of gas of it. It all began some thirteen billion years ago, when clouds of gas scattered through the universe's primordial plasma just could not keep their metaphorical hands off each other.

During the course of a career that began in the late 1940s, Lenny Bruce challenged the sanctity of organized religion and other societal and political conventions; he widened the boundaries of free speech. Critic Ralph Gleason said, "So many taboos have been lifted and so many comics have rushed through the doors Lenny opened. He utterly changed the world of comedy". Although Bruce died when he was only 40, his influence on the worlds of comedy, jazz, and satire are incalculable.

This feeling has permeated her life, and as she embarked on a science writing career, she realized there were psychological connections between this feeling of being an outsider and both her struggles and successes later in life.

Love Carrie.
Delightful, captivating, and clever. Carrie Fisher never disappoints. She’s got great stories and her point of view is refreshing. Down to earth - no big dramatic aha moments. Just real, raw and honest.

So insightful and funny
Carrie Fisher is a great story teller. I’ve read all her books.
I devour her stories up and then I am sad that I over indulged. But then I reread them a couple years later amd they are just as funny and interesting as the first time.
Now with audible I am listening to them all over again but hearing them in Ms. Fisher’s voice! It has been an entirely new experience when you hear her inflection, her tone, her incredible humour come through.
A bonus in this book, if you have father issues, read this book. It helps knowing you, your siblings, your kids, and/or maybe your mom are not alone. The world is full of Eddy Fisher type dads.
