Wishful Drinking - Carrie Fisher. WASTE OF TIME AND $$$$
Best line in the book: If religion is the opiate of the masses, I took masses of opiates religiously. otherwise, lots of Debbie Reynolds worship, not much about Paul Simon (except this little bit of advice: "if you can get Paul Simon to write a song about you, do it!" - gee, Carrie, thanks for THAT; and a bunch of shite you can hear at any AA meeting. Yawn. Give me Augusten Burroughs any day.
