This was my second Taylor Jenkins Reid novel after reading The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. I prefer Seven Husbands to this book, but I definitely recommend Daisy Jones & The Six and really enjoyed this book - more than I was expecting. I don't have much knowledge on 70's rock 'n' roll culture and don't really like that music genre, but I finished this in less than 24 hours and loved it!

TJR creates such an intense, captivating, serious-yet-light-hearted mood with her writing style. She really draws you right in, and the oral-history style formatting of this fictional novel was enjoyable to read. The characters are all so different and the varying perspectives of the same situations are a reminder of our own flawed humanity, unique individuality, and inner worlds.

This is a great read if you're looking for an escape into another world or a quick beach read. You'll be rooting for, disappointed in, and inspired by the characters- some of them evoking all of those emotions simultaneously.
