This charming audio book enlists the cast and crew of the Princess Bride to speak about their experiences on the film. Elwes narrates the bulk in his sweet British accent, placing context around the other narratives and explaining everything to the hiring process to breaking his toe with sheepish, impossibly British gentleness. It doesn't have a lot of depth, but it does have a lot of heart. Would highly recommend to fans of the movie.

This novel picks up on Suzanne Vale's story somewhere between 10 - 15 years after the original story. Now she has medications and a child, but her penchant for disaster has not changed a bit. It's a sad story to read knowing that is is so heavily autobiographical (Fisher admits as much in her memoirs). I would recommend it to anyone looking for a harsh but fair portrayal of mental illness.
