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!

4.1/10

Enjoyed the narrative technique of the novel — characters recounting events in an interview, engaging in dialogue with the interviewer. 

I was impressed with how Jenkins Reid’s wrote her characters’ dialogue so conversationally. It was convincing and effortless. 

I liked the stark discrepancies and contradictions between characters when recounting events. They were all unreliable in that way and I like how the story leaves the truth unclear. 

I have a love/hate relationship with novels that are about music. It’s the same dissatisfaction I feel when watching cooking shows. You can describe it and show it to me all you want but it’s not in my mouth. 

I consumed this novel via audiobook and really loved that there was a full cast. It was like I was listening to a play on the radio. It was so emotive and artistically done. Arguably one of the best audiobook narrations I’ve heard. 

I found the ending of the band sudden. We all knew it was coming but yet I still found the way it was written anticlimactic and incomplete somehow, and not in a satisfying literary way.

I found the attempt at actually writing the band’s hit song “Honeycomb” and playing it at the end of the audiobook embarrassing??? You can’t write a novel and paint a picture about how extraordinary and talented and huge this band was and then expose my ears to whatever that was and expect me to say, yes, people definitely would have gone crazy over this song. It was cringey.
