Reviews with content warning for Adult/minor relationship - Daisy Jones & the Six

This is the first time I have read a book in this type of interview formatting and I found it interesting. It was hard and confusing to get into at first as I was listening to it but slowly I got the hang of it and familiarised myself with the casts’ voice. I liked the storyline and how it is very much character driven and the characters have great developments throughout the story and I liked how they have real problems that real musicians may be experiencing in their careers. If I’m a musician, I would feel seen and less alone when reading this book.
I did not rate it higher as this type of realism genre is not my go-to genre. I prefer more plot-driven novel. However, I can recognise and appreciate the comfort and elements of this type of genre provide. It is a great story overall.

I didn't have any expectations going into this and I think that was very good because this book is something I could never have expected. I love the interview style and how the different interviews are mashed together to one narrative that also often contradicts itself. The whole book just felt so real and like the band really did exist. I loved the characters even though I was really annoyed by them sometimes too. This is the first book I have read in a while (party because I didn't have the time and partly because I was just in a reading slump). I couldn't stop reading. I liked the book in the beginning but then I just stopped and didn't continue for a while. When I picked it up again yesterday I kept reading until 3am and then finished it while eating breakfast. I really like it and I definitely want to read more by TJR.
I also really liked the song lyrics. I listend the the Album right after finishing the book and I like the songs, I was just a bit disappointed about how much the lyrics were changed. I need to go watch the series now.
