I read this book in 2 days, which is extremely fast for me since I usually take really long with novels(especially ones who have 300-400 pages or larger). I really enjoyed reading this it was fun but also dealt with serious topics. I absolutely loved how real these characters felt, at moments I was actually thinking this was a real band. The way T.J.R had written it so two characters are talking about the same thing but they have complete different stories on what actually happened was really good, cause it’s exactly how things are irl. There are so many lines in this book that just made my jaw drop with how good they were, i really got the urge to annotate right on the pages directly but I didn’t in the end. The end was a little weird to me though, it felt kind of out of place like it was only done for shock value
I just don’t think that the twist of the author being Camila and Billy’s daughter, Julia, was a good twist. It felt really out of place and like T.J.R was trying to replicate with what she did with the seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo. That twist just didn’t fit with this book and it made it really confusing, for a minute I was actually thinking that T.J.R was like the actual daughter, it took me a minute to figure out she wasn’t
