This book was okay. While I admire the creativity of writing the whole story like an interview, I don’t think I much liked the format as a reader. I’m also confused how they can be such a hit band with only, like, two albums. And honestly, there wasn’t really any twist like I was expecting—like there was in Evelyn Hugo. So I guess…I don’t know, this book wasn’t much my thing, and I don’t think going forward, books about rockstars are my thing either.

Stayed up 2 nights in a row to finish this. Couldn’t put the book down since page 1. Everything about this book is insane. The characters weren’t even nice or lovable. But I get them. Fuck Eddie tho. Man could burn in hell eternally. Graham too for how he made Karen feel. Shout out to the only Karen who matters ever. The only book that does a “love triangle” involving a marriage right. Ever.
