The Princess Diarist by Carrie Fisher
When Carrie Fisher 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 naivete, and a vulnerability that she barely recognized.
Smart and funny..the pages crackle with one-liners * Guardian *
An unflinching, sometimes painful, sometimes hilarious look inside the mind of a 19-year-old … It’s invasive, juicy, sad, nostalgic and gripping all at once. It’s as if you’ve knocked the lock off of your cooler older sister’s journal and discovered she’s been sleeping with the hottest boy in school this whole time. * LA Times *
Fisher offers a thoughtful, sardonic meditation on the price of fame, cost-of-living adjustments included. -- J.D. Biersdorfer * The New York Times Book Review *
[The Princess Diarist] is a radical truth bomb -- Julia Felsenthal * VOGUE.com *
Carrie Fisher was so real it was dangerous…. My God, girls, we owe her a lot. -- Sharon Horgan
She didn't need The Force. She was a force of nature, of loyalty and of friendship. -- Steven Spielberg
It’s an eye-opener for fans, but it also shows a gifted writer even at a young age. There was a lot going on between Princess Leia’s hair buns.
