The First Lady Next Door - by Eliza Reid (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

A witty, behind-the-scenes memoir of life as Iceland's First Lady, national bestselling author Eliza Reid's story reveals how resilience, humor, and boldness can turn unexpected challenges into extraordinary opportunities.

When Eliza Reid became First Lady of Iceland, she didn't just step into a role--she rewrote the script.

But this isn't just a memoir of glittering events--it's a call to action for anyone finding their way through uncharted territory. Through volcanic eruptions, political upheaval, and a global pandemic, Eliza shares the lessons that shaped her, showing how resilience, creativity, and a sense of humor can transform the unexpected into something extraordinary.
