Publisher's summary

A revelatory and touching tribute to the lives of Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds written by the person who knew them best, Todd Fisher’s poignant memoir is filled with moving stories of growing up among Hollywood royalty.

In December 2016, the world was shaken by the sudden deaths of Carrie Fisher and her mother Debbie Reynolds, two unspeakable losses that occurred in less than 24 hours. The stunned public turned for solace to Debbie’s only remaining child, Todd Fisher, who somehow retained his grace and composure under the glare of the media spotlight as he struggled with his own overwhelming grief.

The son of "America’s Sweethearts" Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fisher, Todd grew up amid the glamorous wealth and pretense of Hollywood. Thanks to his funny, loving, no-nonsense mother, Todd remained down to earth, his own man, but always close to his cherished mom, and to his sister through her meteoric rise to stardom and her struggle with demons that never diminished her humor, talent, or spirit.

Now, Todd shares his heart and his memories of Debbie and Carrie with deeply personal stories from his earliest years to those last unfathomable days. His book, part memoir, part homage, celebrates their legacies through a more intimate, poignant, and often hilarious portrait of these two remarkable women than has ever been revealed before.

Todd’s book is a love letter to a sister and a mother, and a gift to countless fans who are mourning the deaths of these two unforgettable stars.

Wonderful story telling and performance .

Todd Fisher, son of Debbie Reynolds and brother of Carrie Fisher, has written a powerful and touching book. His narrative sounds like he is telling the amazing story of their lives to us personally.

Fascinating Memior

I was not a Debbie Reynolds fan, a Carrie Fisher fan and I confess, I am not a Star Wars fan. These people and things were something going on in the background of my very busy life that I was only vaguely aware of. I am a fan of memoirs and well-written books and have been a bookworm since I was a toddler. This is one of the best memoirs I have ever read. Fascinating recollections of an extraordinary life. I feel like I watched a movie instead of reading a book. At the end of the story, the writer has found his niche, as a writer. That which all else revolves around in the world of entertainment. Standing ovation!

Thank you for writing this book, Todd!

I absolutely loved it; this book was wonderful! If you loved Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds then you're in for a definite treat. It is virtually a timeline of the Fisher/Reynolds Family and life. Todd Fisher does a wonderful job in telling the personal story of their lives

Amazing

Thank you Mr. Fisher for sharing your amazing life with your girls. I loved this book so much ❤ I needed this so much.

Everything you want in an audio book

Engrossing from beginning to end. The only disappointment is that it had to end. I am a memoir junkie and this is one of my all time favourites

I over this book so much.

Such a beautiful account of three unique lives. I cried at the end, even though I knew what was coming. Todd Fisher’s memories of his childhood, teen years, and adulthood with his girls will have you riveted and saying “SHHHHHH!!!!” when someone walks into the room and starts talking to you. It’s epic, hilarious, shocking, bawdy, fun, inspiring, moving, and so very sweet. It’s just a really beautiful book. If you like celebrity autobiographies, you will rank this in your top five, for sure. Thank you for writing this book, and reading it to us, Todd Fisher!

My 2 Girls WOW

So much heart and honesty.
Well documented and well read.
A rare insight to two very public lives.

Thank you Todd

I had no idea what to expect from this book. Todd Fischer offers many stories about his mother and sister. He gives such intricate details. Not in an exploiting way. But as someone who clearly lived through the experience. It will make you laugh, cry and above all it will give you a little more insight into a complex family that entertained many generations. Thank you Todd for sharing the wonderful and tough memories with us. I’d like to think your girls would be proud.

Great Listen But...

I never was able to get over the author’s sad, self-justifying co-dependence on his mom and sister. Some of the stories of his ridiculously privileged and obnoxious teenage years were so tone deaf and out of touch, it repelled me. But as he matured and became more self aware I started to enjoy it more. Quite a life. Just didn’t seem like HIS.

This book made me wonder if any of them had a brain.

I’m actually a fan of Debbie Reynolds to point. After reading this book I wonder if anyone in that family had a brain. The many times they were duped and truthfully just screwed over is amazing. Once I can see but after that wouldn’t you think to check out the people you deal with. I wanted To scream at certain points what were you thinking? But if you wanna know the story behind Debbie Reynolds family this is a good book to listen to. Almost too honest. Of course then again who knows which truth and not truth. Still I had to admire the love in that family even with all of the crazy tragic things that happened.
