This is the kind of book that will keep you turning pages. Every page I read, I wanted to know what would happen next.

I haven’t read a book like it before, so it is hard to describe. I think what makes it so good to read is the characters and the tightly written narrative. No character is uninteresting, and the way Reid is able to make a story in this interview format is so interesting.

It will make you laugh, and it will make you sad. I would really recommend it

There was not even a fraction of enough build up or tension for any of the huge plot points in the narrative to matter as much as they should have. The characterization wavered so much though it started out so strong and that was disappointing. The band’s level of success made no since from the events described and there was no romance between Daisy and Billy, it felt forced and like a shitty enemies-to-lovers at times. I did read this in two days and I couldn’t ever put it down but in the end it was just lacking. I like the made up version in my head more than the reality of it, now I’m actually excited to see how the show changes it (and makes it more interesting because in the end it really isn’t as interesting of a story as it sells itself to be). Also there was a touch of soap opera corniness and ridiculousness that’s kind of hard to ignore at times - an Italian Prince, for instance. And I don’t like the writing of it enough to pick up any of TJR’s other books but I didn’t completely hate it, I had a fun time reading it’s just that the execution was such a let down to the great concept.

while the idea behind this book is a fun one, it felt like it was building up to something only for there to be absolutely no pay off. no dramatic blow out, daisy and billy don’t even end up together (not that i wanted them to but it would’ve made sense). it just kind of. ended. i suppose that makes it appear more realistic but it was just kind of a let down. it didn’t give me something to care about or root for.
