It was good. Perhaps as good as everyone has been saying. Daisy Jones & The Six was my second Taylor Jenkins Reid, and all I have to say is wow. It's a story you'll begin to love and care for from the first few chapters. It has complex dynamics and great character development. I highly recommend reading this if you, for some reason,  haven't already. You will devour in two days tops, I assure you (unless you're exam season like I am right now). 

As you've probably guessed by reading some of the reviews of this book, Daisy Jones & The Six's structure is peculiar and not for everyone.  This choice of narration may be perceived by some as cold, emotionless, and detached; for others, like me, this style was perhaps the best way to present this type of story. I felt like it added many layers to the events and the characters. It's not all telling, no showing; on the contrary, I would argue that one of this book's merits lies in allowing its readers to find the "truth" by themselves, in seeing what's hidden between the lines and the stolen glances. There's a lot to love here, but only if you're willing to give this writing style a fair shot and if you're intrigued by the premise. If you find yourself bored after the first chapter, it's better to put it back on the shelf.
