Grace Johnson can’t escape the feeling that her life is on autopilot—until her husband announces he’s done with their marriage. Grace has a choice: wallow in humiliation . . . or reluctantly grant her outlandish mother’s seventieth birthday wish with a road trip Graceland. Buckle up, Elvis. We’re on our way.
Now the two are hightailing it from El Paso to Memphis, leaving a trail of sequins, false eyelashes, and difficult memories in their wake. Between spontaneous roadside stops to psychics, wig mishaps, and familiar passive-aggressive zingers, Grace is starting to better understand her Elvis-obsessed mama and their own fragile connection. She may even have another shot at love. Apparently, the King really does work in mysterious ways. But after all these years, will it ever be possible for Grace and her mom to heal the hurts of the past?
My ReviewA Thousand Miles to Graceland by Kristen Mei Chase
My rating: 4 of 5 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟
I was lucky to receive an audio copy from the Hachette.
This book turned out to be a good time. I was drawn to this book because my mother is also an Elvis fan. Maybe, just not as enthusiastically as Loralynn. She was so much fun.
Grace Johnson had been living an ordinary life by design until her husband blew it all up. While they are attending couple's therapy he admits to having an affair and that he'd like a divorce.
When her mother calls and expresses her birthday to visit Graceland, Grace surprises her mother by agreeing to go.
The road trip from Texas to Tennessee is full of unexpected surprises, tears, and a better understanding of one another.
Thank you so much to the author, and Hachette for this audio to review.
