Reviews with content warning for Eating disorder - Daisy Jones & the Six

Loved it. While reading it, this book made me feel very cool, like I could do all those things even though I never would. Very emotional and heart-wrenching at times.

Well, hot damn. Lol I know Daisy Jones has been on everybody's lips for awhile, and now the reasons are very obvious. This book is dripping with nostalgia, easily readable, and full of passion. I never actually knew how this book was written until I picked it up, and the "VH1 behind the scenes"-like interview style just added another level of entertainment. I loved the entirety of this book.

Theres a very specific trope to this story that hooks me every time... The "creatives working together and communicating through their art instead of speaking their feelings outright," trope. Is it a lack of communication?... Eh, depends... But I don't care. This is catnip to me.

Also a small note... Knowing the history of Fleetwood Mac, whose talent and interpersonal drama inspired much of Daisy Jones and the Six, isn't required at all to enjoy this book... BUT the Easter Eggs scattered throughout really made me smile.

Okay, theres a lot to unpack...
At first i was a bit dissapointed as i was struggling to keep up with the book, I dont know if it is because I had a very hyped idea because of the tv series or because i have never read this interview-type of narrative. But it was being such a let down for me. But after the first half of the book, oh boy that was it.
I guess i grow fond of the characters plus Taylor character build and just her way of writing really came through. I wanted to keep on reading, such that i read the last half in two days having startes the book months ago.
At the end, is such a good book, where you can see a fictional world but so realistic that catches you and make you feel like a fan of the band reading a memoir. It gave me such a nostalgic feeling, like reading the biography of my favourite band and knowing them better. The end was heart wrenching even thought I already knew it.
< SPOILER >I love each of the characters (minus eddie couldn't care less about him), saying goodbye to teddy was hard but to Camila it was impossible. < SPOILER >
She's such a warm character that has a loving and motherly vibe, she was everyone supporter, the scene with Daisy was just...amazing. How she can express such love to make you feel you matter.
Taylor is a great writter with such strong power in her words, can't wait to keep expanding this world with the rest of her books.🤍
