When I finished Daisy Jones and the Six, I stared at my ceiling for a few minutes before turning back to page one and starting all over again.

Daisy Jones and the Six details the rise to fame of a young artist, Daisy Jones. Simultaneously, Billy Dunne’s band, The Six, is also gaining popularity and attention. As both Daisy and the Six gain popularity and status in the world of music, producers see that their collaboration would break the charts. This collaboration formed one of the most beloved bands of the 1970s, Daisy Jones and the Six. Through not only their music, but their interviews and personal relationships, they attracted a huge devoted fan base. By utilizing multiple point of views, Taylor Jenkins Reid builds a wonderful world full of love and rock-and-roll!

I personally enjoyed every aspect of this book. From the romance, to the found family, to the vivid characters, and the band’s amazing lyrics, I was hooked. Taylor Jenkins Reid had me bent over laughing out loud with her use of the different characters’ points of view. While some are in tune, others completely contradict each other in the funniest manner. This book is one of those books you cannot put down, and it is such an addicting read. Jenkins Reid is also very good at dropping a fantastic quote that will leave you pondering and inspired. I really enjoyed the relationship of the leads, Billy and Daisy, but the background characters were what made this novel it for me. Their relationships in the spotlight are so touching and heart-warming. While they struggle with their new-found fame and not receiving equal attention or credit, they stand up for themselves and don’t allow anyone to disrespect them.

To conclude Daisy Jones and the Six is a must read! With colorful characters and wonderful world building, the reader is truly immersed in the 1970s music scene. If you read the book and enjoyed it, you must also check out the Prime adaption of the book starring Sam Claflin and Elvis Presley’s granddaughter, Riley Keough. Along with the adaptation is a phenomenal soundtrack which brings to life the lyrics in the novel! AURORA, the band’s hit album, can be found on many streaming platforms such as Spotify and Apple Music.
