Daisy Jones & The Six is the oral history of a gloriously messy rock and roll band that felt so real I actually looked them up. 🤦🏻♀️
The book captures, for the first time ever, how the band shot to the top of charts… and subsequently fell from them. It encompasses all of the emotions running hot between band members, the perils of addiction, and everything in between.
There’s nothing quite like the entertainment of Fleetwood Mac-style drama a band goes through. And while I enjoyed the character growth, bearing witness to their stories concurrently, and hearing their (differing) point of views, the ending left me yearning for more.
