Book Reviews of Elvis and Me
Book Review: poor little priscilla-not-
Summary: 1 Stars
priscilla acts like she was the inasent one. she wwrite's abouthow Elvis cheated on her, she also cheated on him right after she hadLisa marie. She writes about that in her book. She knew what she was getting into when she married Elvis. She had lived with him before for a numerous of years before they married, so i don't pitty her one bit. as far as her keeping the Presley name i think she kept it for her acting coureer. That didn't go to far. I believe she took the easy way out, she left him when he was down. she didn't stand by her man.and for someone that want's to know the real priscilla read the child bride- great book.Book Review: sharon's review
Summary: 1 Stars
I ordered this book thinking it would be wonderful.What a disappointment!I have nothing but respect for Priscilla Presley,but this book read like a trashy romance novel.Some of the stories she tells just do not seem to be the whole truth.I would advise people not to buy this book as it is pretty much fiction.Instead I think people should read Child Bride as it was was truthful and gets to the bottom of alot of things,and has interviews with several people who knew both Elvis and Priscilla.Book Review: the gospel according to priscilla
Summary: 2 Stars
While parts of this book are interesting-the inside information on Elvis, and their life together, for example-there's just a little too much of "poor,pitiful, long-suffering Priscilla". Apparently she wasn't scarred to badly by the experience-she has shrewdly kept the presley surname and continues to pass herself off as The Widow Presley, despite their divorce and her continuing not-too-believeable claims that she wants to be known for "herself"-not just as Elvis's wife-make that EX wife. This book is ultimately self-congratulatory and predictable. Pass.Book Review: the king and Priscilla
Summary: 2 Stars
when I read this book, about Priscilla and Elvis....I liked it in a way but in another way,I don't feel the least bit sorry for her because she knew exactly what she was marrying into,she should of thought it over and asked herself......*Am I doing the right thing,marrying the most famous sex symbol in the world?* but she didn't and the fact is she must of cared alot for his money because she asked for alot when she got divorced from him and then wanted more afterwards.So half of me feels sorry but the other half doesn't.Book Review: typical glossed over celeb bio
Summary: 1 Stars
I have had a change a heart about this book, if you read it when it first came out in the 80's, you thought it was a great book. But now over 15 years later alot of inconsistencies arise but since Priscilla is Priscilla no one has really ever dared to question her. Alot of people who were interviwed for Child Bride tell a diffrent story, so many that their stories can't be explained away because i have always believed were there is smoke, is fire. In regards to the fact that Priscilla did date quite alot but she says she hardly did and when Priscilla was supposedly giving Elvis encouragment in the TV movie. Another side came about to where she was mocking him, laughing behind his back over the snowmobile suit he was wearing. And on and on, don't buy this book because if you really read it, you will come away with alot more questions then answers. But if you like the usual spin, you will love this one..
