Well, hot damn. Lol I know Daisy Jones has been on everybody's lips for awhile, and now the reasons are very obvious. This book is dripping with nostalgia, easily readable, and full of passion. I never actually knew how this book was written until I picked it up, and the "VH1 behind the scenes"-like interview style just added another level of entertainment. I loved the entirety of this book.

Theres a very specific trope to this story that hooks me every time... The "creatives working together and communicating through their art instead of speaking their feelings outright," trope. Is it a lack of communication?... Eh, depends... But I don't care. This is catnip to me. 

Also a small note... Knowing the history of Fleetwood Mac, whose talent and interpersonal drama inspired much of Daisy Jones and the Six, isn't required at all to enjoy this book... BUT the Easter Eggs scattered throughout really made me smile.
