I felt a range of emotions listening to this audiobook. I abhored & enjoyed seeing Billy's & Daisy's growth and development as musicians and people and dealing with the complexity of their lives, exploration of addiction, love, sense of self. I liked Karen, she was great. Everyone was complicated & the ending was nice, I didn't expect Julia to be that JULIA. I also admired Camila's unwavering belief in her family.
The women in this book are so powerful and dynamic. There are so many strong messages about women empowerment, supporting other women, and demanding credit where it’s due. Even the smaller side characters are them much more layered than most supporting characters, as we explore their own storylines. Plus the relationships between all of the women, (Karen & Daisy, Karen & Camila, Camila & Daisy – even Daisy and little Julia made my heart swell!) are wholesome, unique, and authentic. Especially for a story with a bit of a love triangle, I could not be happier with the superb study of the experience of women.
