"This was a huge lesson for meโ€”the only way out is through. You must allow pain in to free yourself from it."

It's hard not to know who Elvis is โ€” he's an icon of the music world, cemented his place in the genre's history. But, growing up with him as your dad? It seems unimaginable to live a life in that type of stardom.

I was eager to read Lisa Marie Presley's book but wasn't quite prepared for the sadness that would consume me as I read her life story.

There was so much raw content in this book - things that I didn't realize about her life. From her wild childhood, the death of he father, the toxic relationships that plagued her early adult life, her marriage to Michael Jackson, the birth of her children, her opioid addiction, and the death of her son. It was just all so incredibly heartbreaking. It had me thinking that there really is a price that comes with being that famous.

I admire Riley for continuing with her mom's story, and my heart breaks for her because she never really got to say goodbye.
