Daisy Jones & the Six is another great book by Taylor Jenkins Reid. If I were going to nitpick, I would say her style of an 11th hour child-related plot twist only really works the first time (and I read Evelyn Hugo before I got StoryGraph), but that is a minor thing. The ending also feels a little abrupt. But I love the level of detail, and the inclusion of the lyrics from the album in the back. I love the messy tension between Billy and Daisy. I love fictionalized versions of things we tend to use to share the truth, like a documentary or like an academic paper (House of Leaves ftw), and this obviously delivered in that realm. I wish I had listened to it as audiobook, but by the time I realized that was the best format, I wanted to read the book too much to wait for that version.

This book. Oh my gosh, this book.

I laughed, I cried, I screamed, I wanted to throw it in the garbage. This book just had everything I've ever wanted. This book was so intense, it was just... magical. I loved this book. It is genuinely my only personality trait right now.

Click the spoiler to see why I only rated it 4 stars!

Spoiler

The reason I didn't give this book 5 stars was solely because the two main characters knew how to piss me off in a way that would bring my rating down. Mostly Billy's cheating and the emotional stress he put on his wife, and overall just a lot of Daisy's decisions in general. I loved every other character in this cat though. Warren and Graham will forever have my heart. But those two MCs...
