The Princess Diarist

“You know Carrie Fisher, the famous actress, but do you know Carrie Fisher, the writer? This witty, intimate and revealing memoir was published about a month before her death. I loved the listening experience. It felt like Fisher was in the room with me sharing memories from her past since she narrates the majority of the book. Included in this memoir are journal entries that Fisher wrote during the filming of A New Hope. These entries are narrated by her daughter, Billie Lourd. I have listened to audiobook multiple times, and it never disappoints!”
