It had some amazing points that were super refined while also having unfinished ideas. Which made for a good read, that left some dissatisfaction.
The characters are fun. There’s many of them so it was work keeping up with them. What helped is listening to this as an audiobook. Each character had a different voice. There aren’t many books that are better as audiobooks, but I think this one is.
Most characters, individually were well built. I liked their narcissisms, their self loathing and their vices, thier morals. And the writing showed well what characters thought of themselves and what others thought of them. This part of the book was done very well. This book needed unreliable narrators and it delivered.
The problem begins with character interactions. They aren’t fully fleshed out. Characters have contentions but they’re all just built on jealousy and self pride. There’s not much complexity. Just cliches. The love affairs are also cliches.
Possibly one of the least realistic depiction of addiction I’ve read. Sobriety doesn’t work for a few days and then forever. You don’t just have to make up your mind to be sober.
Camila, Daisy, and Karen are all amazingly written female characters. They all have strong ideas, many of which strongly oppose each other. And none of them are wrong for it. They’re is respect and kindness between all the women. However, it doesn’t sit well that the only black female character is just a support to Daisy Jones.
I don’t know what’s with Reid and connecting the
The ending was not my favourite.
