Reviews with content warning for Addiction - Elvis and Me

I thought that this book was extremely emotional. Priscilla writes in a way that makes you feel as if you are experiencing it all with her. She tells these important events in her and Elvis's relationship that changed the way I had viewed the couple all my life. While I have previously known that fame isn't as glamorous as it seems, I never thought all of this could come along with it.
I also thought this book had an adventurous undertone. While it is informative and even a bit depressing Priscilla did a phenomenal job at always trailing bad moments with great life events. While they had numerous issues and were nowhere near perfect, they had a lot of good moments as well. I personally liked how Priscilla really focused on the fact that Elvis should be portrayed as a man. Yes, he was the king of rock and roll and a famous rockstar, but at the end of the day, he was a man. A man who gets angry and fights with his wife, a man who drinks too much and commits adultery, but still just a man. Priscilla had always said that no matter if it made the outlook better or worse, people always say Elvis as the idea of him, never just Elvis.
