this book was interesting! i thought the format was cool, yet it took some getting used to. this book didn’t blow me away like some of my other 4 star reads but i can’t see giving it less than 4. the dichotomy of wild daisy and vigilant billy made the tension between them undeniable, they simply didn’t agree in each others lifestyles. while i did enjoy this book, i wish there was more! i wanted to see more of the aftermath after the band broke up and how that influenced the paths they took, if it did.
Spoiler having julia as the author almost made her unreliable. why would billy tell his daughter about all of the things he did that would shine him in a negative light? why would daisy rat on julia’s mom and dad? who lied solely because julia was the one writing this? it added an interesting twist that i appreciated at the end but i wish the book had ended differently, it felt like an anticlimactic ending.
