Sin palabras. Me levanto y aplaudo y lloro y bailo...y me pienso leer todo lo que escriba esta señora. Menuda experiencia "Todos quieren a Daisy Jones".
EN:
I am still in a post-reading haze, wishing this was real. I adored this book, the nostalgic feeling, the complex characters and the idea of almost feeling the band in this story was real. I want more songs, I want more concert and I want to go back to this story now.
I am going to read everything Jenkins Reid writes.

I've seen many people praise this book for its female characters, stating it's some sort of feminist text. I mean, I guess? Nobody really fights over a man, and each of the three main female characters respect each other, but any interest in larger, more nuanced feminism is glossed over or absent. Daisy dresses however she wants! She doesn't wear a bra! Great, cool, it's not that deep.
Daisy Jones and the Six isn't that deep, in general. It's a quick, readable book that I read in one night. It also has enough meat on the bone to allow the reader to add depth themselves, to think about how the story is told and who is telling the story (the twist used is eyeroll inducing and doesn't add much unless you really want to start ripping the story apart, and I mean that desire to rip the story apart positively). The author pieces this retelling together, so what are they including and what are they leaving out? How are they putting these separate interviews into conversation with each other? And it's an oral history, so what are the band members and people around them leaving out or glossing over and how accurate is their memory? Interesting stuff!
Also, sexy cheating. "Silver Springs," you will always be famous.
