The electro-convulsive shock therapy she's been regularly undergoing is threatening to wipe out (what's left of) Fisher's memory. This might even be a brand-new addiction for her. But before she can truly commit herself to it in the long term, she decided to get some of those more nagging memories of hers on paper.

More in-depth, funnier and more touching than Wishful Drinking. Plus, a lot of things I didn't know about her :)
It's not an exaggeration to say Carrie Fisher had a, to say the least, very interesting life. Each of her memoirs go into more detail on a certain part of it, and this one very much focuses on her family and some of her family's closest friends or connections to them. A lot of interesting stories about people like Michael Jackson and Elizabeth Taylor, but also a lot of heartbreaking stuff, especially when it comes to her relationship with her dad. Having it be narrated by her also really adds to the emotion of it.
