A Thousand Miles to Graceland by Kristen Mei Chase

3.5

I enjoyed this sweet story about a mother and daughter embarking on a roadtrip to visit Elvis Presley's Graceland.  The book was really therapeutic, and I enjoyed seeing how Loralynn and Grace (yes, her mother named her after Graceland) were able to reconnect and finally be vulnerable with another. The book did start off a bit slow for me, and there wasn't much build-up or fun Elvis moments before the life-changing news was revealed. However, Loralynn was an absolute hoot, and it did not take long to fall in love with her. This really is a tribute to mother/daughter relationships and how it's not until we get older do we realize the meaning behind the other's actions. 

Thank you to Forever and Grand Central Publishing for my gifted copy in exchange for my honest opinion!
