Now on to the review!
Daisy Jones and the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid
Two-sentence summary
This book is centered around the fictional band, Daisy Jones and the Six, and tells the story of what lead up to the band breaking up in the middle of a major tour. The novel is told interview style and starts from the band’s formation and follows them to their demise.
What I liked most and what frustrated me
What I loved the most was getting to hear the different sides to every story, especially about the same events. It really brought the story to life for me and made it feel so real. I loved all of the characters, so matter how much they annoyed me. It was also fascinating see the growth and character development of each person over the years in the book.
What frustrated me the most? Um, the fact that the book was fiction and I couldn’t listen to the music! However, it’s getting turned into a mini series, so I’ll hopefully get to hear the music then!
