Carrie found these diaries shortly before she died and formed them into a book. To be honest, I would have liked less about the affair between her and Harrison Ford - she didn’t seem to say much anyway, even though it took up most of the book. I wanted more about the movies and the other actors. Ah well. I’ll bet Harrison Ford wasn’t too impressed though.
And there’s no denying that Carrie Fisher could write. One of those books that as soon as you’ve started, you’ve already finished (this is a good thing!).

I’d never read any of Fisher’s work before this and was delighted with her sense of humor.
She really does just focus on her life leading up to landing the role of Princess Leia and on the time during and just after filming. She does touch a bit on how the role has continued to impact her life experiences towards the end.
