Me encantó este libro, cuando empezaba a leer no quería parar. 
Es el segundo que leo de esta autora, y por ahora mi favorito.
Los personajes son interesantes y la narración en forma de entrevista da mucho juego, hace que la historia no tenga un solo narrador aunque haya dos claros protagonistas. Me gustaron mucho los momentos en los que contaban algo y el siguiente en hablar lo recordaba de forma distinta, era gracioso y realista, y también ayudaba a definir la personalidad del que hablaba.
La historia de 10, todo muy intenso y emocionante.

Spoiler

Aunque la duración del grupo fue corta, estaba todo tan bien hilado para llevarlo a su fin, que me encantó un final tan repentino pero a la vez natural.

 
En general todos los personajes están muy bien escritos. Me gustó mucho Daisy, pero Billy me gustó aún más, su parte de la historia me parecía más interesante, con más matices. 
Es un libro que me ha encantado de principio a fin, y seguro que lo volveré a leer.

This book 100% should be listened to through audiobook to get the full experience. Having the full cast of characters narrated by different people helped differentiate who they were and made following along all the more easier. Most of the story was your run of the mill band forms, band gets really famous, band members get wrapped up in all different types of addictions. However, it ends in a positive note and had a unique take on the dismantling of the band. Lots of great quotes from TJR. Would recommend to anyone who likes movies such as Bohemian Rhapsody and A Star is Born

wow, that was a piece of a great book. nuanced, well-written, fun to read. 

i loved, once again, the way Reid creates female characters - complex, complicated, powerfull, unapologetic, full of rage and with a big heart at the same time. 

the dynamic between the characters was just *chef's kiss*. 

glad for the author to make such good choices within the plot - which were apparently much better for the book itself, rather than to please the readers. it made the story have many more layers and depth you can explore

An incredibly engrossing story about a band's ups & downs as they make it in the industry. Unique way of structuring the book as it’s directed to be more of an interview/transcript format. Exhibits major life struggles that are faced & reiterates the different paths people in close proximity/ with the same goal have; everyone is on a different path, even if they’re doing the same things or working together in close proximity.
