There is only one problem with Wishful Drinking by Carrie Fisher: I wish the book were longer. That's not a serious problem. There are still more of her books that I can read or reread. This book was adapted from a one-woman show. I wish that I had been able to see the show. I find myself laughing out loud frequently when I read her writing. When writing about the father of her daughter she said, "When I met him, he had hair. Actually, I do that, too - I make them bald, I turn them gay, my work is done!" Too bad I couldn't have got her to use that magic on some men I know. Oh well, there would have been no guarantee that they would have been interested in me sexually. I have enjoyed her films that I have seen, but I love her writing. She had a wonderful sense of humor.
