Yeah I've been seeing excerpts coming out and it's a lotta stuff. Riley's conception was particularly crazy to say the least!
"Priscilla told Lisa Marie she thought about miscarrying her by falling off her horse because she didn't want pregnancy weight as Elvis' wife. She wanted Elvis' undivided attention and Lisa Marie always felt Priscilla didn't want her. Lisa Marie believed in energy in utero and felt Priscilla didn't like her and she didn't have great maternal instincts."That's sad but not surprising because I didn't read the book but Lisa did mention in her book that whereas Elvis was happy to find out she was pregnant, Lisa wasn't because of the timing. She had something about her finally reaching a breakthrough in her relationship with Elvis that she thought a pregnancy would thwart so she considered having an abortion. Her and Elvis had talked about it but ultimately decided against it they didn't want to live with that

I listened to the audiobook of elvis and me last year and it was like a horror movie, so it will be interesting to hear the perspective of Lisa Marie and learn more about her life. I'm waiting patiently for the audio book from the library rn.
Her life was so fucking crazy from such a young age and she seems completely terrified of age=ing-as evidenced by her extreme cosmetic procedures. I wonder if it's a "laugh to keep from crying" type of response? It was surreal to hear her talk about how Elvis gave her some random pills that knocked her out for two full days when she first came to visit him as a young teenager and just kind of wistfully chuckle about it.

I’m enjoying the audiobook.
I like Lisa Marie’s actual voice along with her daughter’s.
I don’t care for Julia Robert’s narration.
