Daisy Jones & The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid
5.0
Having adored "The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo," I couldn't resist diving into another masterpiece by Taylor Jenkins Reid— "Daisy Jones and the Six."
I have never read a book in this format before. It is written like an interview transcript, with multiple POVs. I opted for the audiobook, narrated by a stellar cast, which turned out, in my opinion, to be the best way to immerse yourself in this unique narrative.
TJR skillfully captured the electric atmosphere of music writing, live performances, and the good and the ugly of rising to fame. It is a wonderfully written love letter to 70's rock and roll.
I found myself deeply moved by the intricacies of each character. There is so much depth and beauty in how Daisy, Billy, and Camilla's characters were written, and how their lives are intertwined.
The Amazon Prime adaptation did a great job with the casting choice and song renditions, but I personally did not appreciate the deviations from the original story.
