After having loved “The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo” I was excited about reading Taylor Jenkins Reid’s newest book. My excitement was followed by reading a totally original and totally engrossing mock-biography of Daisy Jones and the rock band she played with.

The book is a series of connected mock-memories told to a biographer by Daisy, her band mates and others in her orbit. The author manages to flawlessly blend those memories into a coherent biography of a shooting star who shone bright during a few years of drug fueled fame.

Somehow, each character is surprisingly well-developed. There are sub-plots, but Reid manages to make each one meaningful. I generally dislike books with so many characters and plots, but this is different, written by a master who blends them all together seamlessly.

And, at last all incorporated into absolutely perfect closure. I have one small criticism of the book, the author goes into too much detail about the technical aspects of the creation of a recording.

As a reader, I simply fell in love with Daisy, Billy, Camilla and the rest of the interviewees. The book absolutely spins a magical web that held me from start to very satisfying finish.

This is a must read, and if you haven’t read Evelyn Hugo, grab that as well!

OH MY GOODNESS. This book is an absolute whirlwind that swallows you up whole from start to finish.
If you took the movie "Almost Famous" and mixed it with the very best episodes of "Behind The Music," then you maybe you could get a fraction of the experience you get by reading this book.
Daisy Jones is young, talented, beautiful and wants to be taken seriously as a musician. When she meets Billy Dunne and the rest of the members of The Six, they join forces to become the biggest band in the world.
What ensues is a wild ride that gives you everything you could want from a book and more! There's never a false note, the story never lags, and you become so attached to these characters that it feels like losing a friend when you finish the book.
I loved the interview format, and the way the author shows that no two people remember a shared experience the same way.
It's an absolutely brilliant novel, and after reading The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, I thought there's no way she could write another book THAT good. But, alas, she did. I am completely in awe of Taylor Jenkins Reid and her ability to write complex, strong, and bad ass women.
Daisy Jones & The Six comes out in March, and I beg you to do yourself a favor and read this book!
Happy reading!

Don’t you dare ask me who I love more out of Daisy or Evelyn. I will not answer that. I can’t answer that. I love them in their own special way. Oh my GOD! Omg. Okay, need to breath. I loved this! Daisy Jones and The Six is right up next to my favorite read which would be Reid’s previous book, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo.

I got goosebumps people, GOOSEBUMPS. I’m not sure about anyone else, but have you ever heard someone sing and you’re just like daayyum and get the goosies all over? No? Just me, ok. That was me while reading this damn book! Multiple times.

This story is about how Daisy Jones and The Six formed their band in the seventies. An author is writing a tell all about the group. We have multiple perspectives from members of the band and close friends during their interviews. It just worked so well, I am huge fan of multiple POVs so of course I loved it.

Relationships, friendships, siblings and of course... sex, drugs and rock n roll 🤘🏼✌🏼 5++ highly recommend!!!
