Customer Reviews of DELUSIONS OF GRANDMA
intriguing characters but so self-indulgent I found myself skimming this book for the good bits - the ones that are witty or where things actually happen. But about two thirds of it are just tedious wallowing in intelligent but pointless musings. Some fierce editing would have made it an enjoyable book.
Laugh Out Loud Funny
Definitely read this with a friend in the room. (One who doesn't mind being interrupted while you read aloud from every other page.)
This book is full of the type of wit that I wish I possessed.
Not for people who like a very straight-foward plot. It is a bit overpowered by the prose, but with prose like this who cares? I reached the end and immediately wanted to either start over or invite Fisher to lunch.
Fisher has scored another hit.
I THOUGHT IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FUNNY?
I bought this book because it was advertised as being hilariously funny. In a way, I guess it was. It was so stupid, it was hilariously funny. The characters were cardboard cliches, the dialogue so dumb I couldn't believe anyone could write so badly and the plot non-existent. Had I read, "Cora reached for her moisturizer," one more time I would have assumed that Cora had slithered away in an oil slick! I thought books were supposed to have a point--this happens, which leads to this, then this, etc., etc. But this book just meanders, changing directions more times than Dodge 'Em cars. And where is the humor? My five year old niece has written funnier things than this! I think, but am not sure, of course, that the book is highly autobiographical--a mistake, of course, since most of us have lives no one cares to read about--Carrie Fisher included. If you're looking for something amusing, warm and funny, stay away from this book. If you want something to put you to sleep at night, this might do it.
