I think I missed the boat on this one. It was super hyped, so I had high expectations, but it fell flat for me. It was just a transcript of interviews, pieces together into a book, so it felt detached and meaningless to me. It was like a VH1 Behind the Music special, but since it’s not a real band, I just kind of didn’t care. The last paragraph did make me cry, though, so I’ll give it that much.

buddy read with adelyn ᰔᩚ i had a great time reading with you! :)
my fifth taylor jenkens reid book, and i could not put this down.
the characters are very well developed. the fact that this is a work of fiction always catches me by surprise. i refuse to believe these characters aren’t real.
camila was my favorite character. i know she wasn’t one of the main characters, but she brought so much wisdom to daisy and was so human. i love how fiercely she fought for her family, billy got real lucky.
the plot was so fast paced. i loved how it was structured! it was separated into parts and written in an interview style, making it super easy to read. i find anything with famous people interesting, so i knew i would have fun reading this. i just kept wanting to know what would happen next! not only was i interested in their careers, but i was interested in the character’s lives. it was an absolute roller coaster with daisy jones and the six and i was in for the ride.
i have talked about TJR’s writing many times before, but it’s excellent! the sheer amount of research and planning put into this is what i love. it isn’t just a story she pulled out of nowhere, this took a lot of thought and dedication. i highly appreciate authors who put the work in! i was captivated with the amount of detail. everything flowed together so nicely.
overall, i totally recommend this. i also need to watch the show ASAP!

This was such a weird book for me, initially. I could not get used to the oral interview narrative. This was the first time I’ve ever read a book in this format, but after a chapter, I forgot all about my earlier issues. And even though I don’t really appreciate music as much as others, I really grew to love this band and really committed to listening to their story. Overall, really lovely and compelling.

Hace solo poco más de un año que leí este libro. Pero echaba de menos tanto a estos personajes que he tenido que volver a leerlo.
la manera de escribir de Taylor.... pfff, cala hondo.
No tengo pegas con esta historia, vuelve a ser un cinco estrellas como fue la última vez.
Sigo amando a Daisy por encima de todo, sigo adorando a Warren, sigo odiando el final de Karen y Graham y sigo tirándole hate a Eddie.
Pero Billy y Camila.... algo que no superaré nunca es el final.
