This book was written in such an interesting style - interview form. Which I was nervous about to begin with, but it made it read extremely fast. 
The twist about who is conducting the interview had me geeked to the moon, and totally had me rethink everything else I thought about in the beginning. 
The book had me feeling all the emotions, and honestly I cried at the end.

Really enjoyed this! Easy listen with a great cast. Expertly written - perfectly paced to swell and twist at just the right times. Loved the moments early on when I started the doubt certain characters (saying what they wanted to believe rather than the truth). The ending didn’t wow me but definitely tugged at my heartstrings (and made me want to watch the new tv show!). Overall, I liked how this had a little bit of everything - romance, adventure, conflict, and, if course, rock ‘n roll 🤘🏼

TJR’s ability to write from multiple perspectives int this oral-history-style narrative is impressive and kept me engaged cover to cover.

I read this book because it was a DNF from a couple of years ago and I needed to try a DNF again for a book challenge. The first time, I listened to the audiobook version. This time, I read the e-book. If this had not been a challenge I wanted to complete, I would have DNFed it again. I still do not understand the high ratings on this book. Only two of the characters were likable to me. Warren was ok, but he was so overshadowed by the others that he might as well not have been in the book. Simone was a wonderful friend to Daisy and one I wished she had listened to sooner. Unfortunately, Simone’s character only makes brief appearances because she was not part of the band’s story. I wanted to feel something for Daisy because her childhood was so terrible, but as she got older, I was just bored with her character. She was one note, just a hot mess most of the time. Billy was an egotistical musical talent who pushed everyone around to get his way. Right now, I am past my limit of self-centered men who push people around. The rest of the band blended into the background unless they had some crisis and once resolved, returned to the shadows. I thought maybe the audiobook was the reason I DNFed this the first time, but it was not. Reading 369ish pages of almost straight interview style writing was fatiguing and boring for me. I love memoirs, fictional or not, but why was this the chosen writing style? I made it through to the end, but I wish I had spent the time reading something else.
