From Here to the Great Unknown by Lisa Marie Presley, Riley Keough. This is Lisa Marie Presley's story in her own words written by her daughter, Riley Keough. Lisa's story about smashing golf cars in the yards of Graceland, about the unconditional love she felt from her father, about getting dragged screaming out of the bathroom with her father dead on the bathroom floor, about living in LA with her mom, getting kicked out of schools, always in trouble, about her relationship with Danny Keough, Michael Jackson, Nic Cage, and Michael Lockwood, about motherhood, deep addiction, about grief from her son's suicide. It's the last words of the only child of an American icon. I really enjoyed this book and learning more about Lisa Marie Presley. She definitely was a somewhat lonely person filled with lots of grief. Her story is one that is filled with someone trying to come to terms with her father and his drug addiction which lead to her leading a drug-filled life too. Her daughter, Riley, seems to be the only family member who was able to be a voice of reason in a household filled with addiction. If you like memoirs then you would love to read this book. I'm interested in getting a copy of the audio in order to get a true feel of the book. Highly recommended!
