Lighthearted, sassy, and fun, Last Ride to Graceland still possesses a certain gravitas. It explores the complexity of the mother-daughter relationship as it plumbs the depths of the human heart and celebrates the indomitable, rebounding nature of the human spirit. Last Ride to Graceland starts off with a little humor and quickly engaged me in the story of Cory Beth as she becomes caught up in the mystery that involved her mother and her own father. As she says she has done the maths and she knows that being born a healthy 9lbs plus baby - premature is a bit of a stretch to accept. Last Ride to Graceland by Kim Wright is the post group read for the Southern literary trail group for September It is the story of Cory Beth Ainsworth, a 38 year old who has made a career of singing in bars and living from paycheck to paycheck.
