this book really left me speachless and the end broke my heart.
i loved the interview style. it was such an unique way to tell the story of daisy and the band.
at some points it was so heartbreaking and it was such a real book. no real happy endings, no perfect band, no perfect love.
the plot twist at the end was so surprising and i realized that the book wasn‘t about daisy or the band. it really was about (SPOILER!?) camila.

I really enjoyed this book. It moved quickly because of the interview style of writing. Every character was well written and the storyline felt real from each of their perspectives. The only thing that I thought was unnecessary was the little plot twist at the end about who the interviewer was. It was cute, but the surprise blew over quickly and distracted from an ended that was good without that piece of information.

“That’s how it was back then. I was just supposed to be the inspiration for some man’s great idea. Well, fuck that… I had absolutely no interest in being somebody else’s muse. I am not a muse. I am the somebody. End of fucking story.“
I devoured this book in two days. I highlighted over twenty quotes. I’m talking about it with everyone I make contact with. This is what a five star book should feel like. So incredibly worth the hype!

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.
