Pros & Cons
Pros
The princess diarist is a wonderful blend of the musings of a 19-year-old megastar in the making and the reflections of the woman who has had the time to absorb and finally make sense of that same stardom. It focuses on a very specific time frame, and... Read More
It's about how leia became such a big part of herself. This book is an absolute must read for any woman who is a fanatic for both leia and carrie.
I think that carrie is an amazing storyteller. Carrie doesn't put on airs - she tells things how she remembers them and refuses to sugar coat it. Carrie gets to live on in this book and in the memory i have of her applying glitter to my face at a con.... Read More
Cons

Highlights
Quality
I reread her catalog every few years and i am never disappointed
I always enjoy reading fisher’s books — she’s funny and witty and very selfdeprecating

The only thing that fell flat with me was the dramatic shift in tone with the section of her diaries reproduced in the book
Competitiveness
I chose a 4star rating only because it was hard to read in light of fisher’s unhappy life and untimely death

I was expecting this book to include more information about carrie’s entire experience on the sets of episode 4 not just the love affair that she had with harrison

It is a rambling almost stream of consciousness account of her time making star wars a new hope

Of course carrie wanders in her telling
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
After such a vivacious narrator with carrie billie’s narration fell totally flat almost monotone
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I almost felt like she didn’t even understand what she was reading—like a school kid who is completely lost in poetry or shakespeare class just reading words and being totally lost as to meaning

I ended up having to skip through some of it
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I just received the book and it looks like it’s been folded in half for a while now
