Book Review
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Road trip audiobook
Lisa Marie Presley decided to write her memoir and as she was becoming sicker and sicker, she decided to ask her daughter, Riley, to help her finish it. She died shortly thereafter. This book is a beautiful recounting of a tragically traumatized life. It’s woven between Lisa Marie’s words and Riley’s to tell of a life that few understood but most are intrigued by. Lisa Marie endured endless tragedies and so the book is naturally very heavy but that also makes it feel very authentic because it seems to be that her life was really one filled with so much loss and sadness.
My best friend and I are on a Thelma and Louise type journey and this was the first book we brought along and I don’t regret it.
If you decide to pick it up, I encourage the audio because the narration includes some taped recording of Lisa Marie combined with her daughter’s devoted and loving voice and to top it off Julia Roberts is the voice of Lisa Marie. The production of the book is truly ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
