I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I thought Taylor Jenkins Reid's ability to make the characters of this story feel so real and alive, is a real credit to her writing. Even those who don't normally read general fiction such as myself will also like this one. It's funny, the characters are charming, and like I said, 'Daisy Jones and the Six' feel real.
Is this book 'god-tier' for me, as I had heard many others describe it? No. 
Did I find it an easy, enjoyable read that I read the entire thing in a three hour flight? Yes. 
Do I recommend? Absolutely!

While the interview format made it quick to read and allows for insights into several perspectives on events, I also found it limiting in this case. This book was fun but I was really hoping for some more plot, especially towards the end. I believe the ending is meant to be emotional but to be honest I was a bit fed up of all the characters and their self-hatred. 

My least favourite TJR, but still a really good book and for what it is it has been written very very well.
