Carrie Fisher provides a memoir that is part scrap book, part diary and part rambling stream of conscious. While it’s ostensibly about Star Wars it is really about her relationship with Harrison Ford and then fame as the universe’s most famous princess. Wether you like this book is going to rely on enjoying Fisher’s eccentricities - personally I find her delightful company.

Reading this now is a bit of a trip. Carrie makes references to her own mortality here and there, as anyone would, that threw me a little bit. I haven't read anything else by her yet, but based on The Princess Diarist I definitely will. It's real and emotional and so, so funny. Listening to her talk about meeting fans had me near tears and hearing her daughter read her youthful, lovestruck poems was a bonus provided by the audiobook.
