I read this after being convinced by a few people & im really happy I did! The full cast audio made for an interesting & engaging read. At first I wasn't sure this book would be for me but I quickly became fully invested in all of the characters. I loved how the book was set up, it made it feel like I was reading a story about a real band & it was so well written in the form of a non fiction book. Cant wait to read more by Taylor!

This book was written in such an interesting style - interview form. Which I was nervous about to begin with, but it made it read extremely fast. 
The twist about who is conducting the interview had me geeked to the moon, and totally had me rethink everything else I thought about in the beginning. 
The book had me feeling all the emotions, and honestly I cried at the end.

Really enjoyed this! Easy listen with a great cast. Expertly written - perfectly paced to swell and twist at just the right times. Loved the moments early on when I started the doubt certain characters (saying what they wanted to believe rather than the truth). The ending didn’t wow me but definitely tugged at my heartstrings (and made me want to watch the new tv show!). Overall, I liked how this had a little bit of everything - romance, adventure, conflict, and, if course, rock ‘n roll 🤘🏼
