i’m in awe of what i just read. i only wish the ending could have been elongated and it all didn’t happen so quickly. everything else was incredible and so emotional. 

definitely reread material ✅

Believable characters, very easy to read, written in an interesting style. The ending, the big climax, was very underwhelming. I found it interesting as a character study, and overall it was enjoyable. Just don't read it solely for the climax it promises.

Somebody inject this book into my bloodstream. I friken loved it. Gonna go watch the show now. The characters were just so well written with complex thoughts and emotions and I felt for all of them. A super interesting format for a book too which worked amazingly. I wish there was more of it. Taylor Jenkins Reid hasn’t missed with any of the book I’ve read by her. In audiobook form it feel even more real with the distinct voices as if it’s really interviews. Just gorgeous.

Daisy jones & the six is an emotional read, once you can get beyond the setting that you’ve seen dozens of times. It does feel too real at times with the documentary style, where the author has essentially plucked out a real band and situation and re-written it with other names and dates. However, it’s a nice easy time. 

It’s interesting hearing about all of these people with dreams and everything gets tangled with love and drugs and their relationships with themselves and how those aspects just make it impossible… How all of these people fall together and then have no choice but to walk away in spite of what they want and what they could have all together. It’s heartbreaking in some ways, but reassuring that you’re not the only one going through life as a victim of circumstance. It’s a human experience and we’re all humans (even rockstars).

Sex, drugs and rock and roll and how hard they are to balance with a functioning life with healthy relationships.
