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.

Very different from what I usually read, but definitely lived up to the hype. Highly recommend the full-cast audiobook.

I liked the raw feeling it has in it's writing, and really enjoy the interview narrative because of the unreliability it gave to the plot as every answer was different to the same question sometimes. Still something was missing for me to really connect with the story but it's a pretty good book.
