I really enjoy reading books by this author. This book was very good and well written. It wasn't my personal favorite topic of interest. But it was well done and I'd recommend it.

I enjoyed this ride down memory lane with Daisy Jones and the Six! This book is beautifully written with the different point of views. I loved the way the author took us on the emotional ride of a music group. It felt like I was watching an interview with a popular group and they were recollecting on their rise to fame. I enjoyed this book from beginning to end. I hope the miniseries is as good as the book!

I listened to the audiobook of this and didn't know anything about the book so I went in with zero expectations. It actually ended up being a really enjoyable listen!

The way the audiobook adapts the interview transcripts of the physical book is so clever with the use of incredibly talented narrators that make each character feel alive. I am not sure whether I would enjoy the physical book as much as the audiobook, but I would definitely recommend to give Daisy Jones and the Six a listen as the storyline and characters really lends itself to the audio format.

My first Taylor Jenkins Reid book. TJR writes this one as a script for a documentary of the band, so it’s only interview tapes. This makes it feel like the outline of a book, without the narrative and settings to back it up. TJR is clearly great at writing dialogue and just thought, “what if I don’t do anything else?” Why isn’t she writing plays? This can hardly be called a novel. I mean, I didn’t hate reading this, but it was hardly fleshed out and emotionally inviting. Besides, TJR has a problem which is that she thinks she can do the work of referencing the craziness of the 70s rock’n’roll scene with all the booze, sex and drugs without actually describing it for us. This makes it seem pretty boring and has you, as a reader, relying on what you might’ve seen in “Almost Famous” to give the work any kind of setting.

I was so dissapointed with this book and don't really understand the hype that seemed to surround this book when it came out. Maybe it just wasn't meant for me.
