Daisy Jones & The Six

Meredith shared a tip "Loved this book! It’s a fictional documentary style telling of a huge rock band in the 70s. I would def recommend listening to the audiobook- each character played by a different actor like Benjamin Bratt and Judy Greer."

breanna_braun shared a tip "I love the audiobook of this book. It's probably the first audiobook I've ever finished, but the way this book is written makes it lerfect for an audiobook voiced by several unique voices."

maddie_kaufman shared a tip "Easy read. And the writing was done in a way that made you feel you were there listening to the interview take place! 10 out of 10 recommend!"

melissa_fraser_7833 shared a tip "I loved this book. It is so different from what i usually read.It was a " light read" for me. However it did have a lot of darker content in it. I really enjoyed the characters and the pacing of the story."

tori_benline shared a tip "Listened after a friend recommended over a year ago, it was great! Listened over audiobook, would recommend to other music lovers"

harmonycatherine shared a tip "Loved it! It’s super easy to get sucked into. The choice of narration is unique and unforgettable. It’s hard to believe that the story and band are fictional. One of my favourites, highly recommend!"

ashley_mcmullen shared a tip "While the writing style was unique, I don't think it worked well. I couldn't really connect with the characters and it just felt like I was reading a script from a documentary. I wasn't a fan."

IreneOust shared a tip "One of the best audiobooks I’ve listened to date. Fantastic cast that helps bring this unique story to life. Can’t wait to see if the TV adaptation does this story justice."

shelby_miller_1484 shared a tip "Such a unique format to tell a story, makes it super easy to zoom right through it. This is easily TJR’s best writing. I was engaged the entire time. I highly recommend the audiobook it breathed even more life into this novel."

SpeedyGonzaLiz shared a tip "It reads like real interviews. I listened to the audiobook. LOVED the cast they hired to create it. Absolutely wonderful. Listened to the whole thing in a day! #DaisyJones&TheSix #DaisyJonesAndTheSix #GreatBooks #Audiobooks"

lauren_bee9 shared a tip "8/10 great story. I wish you got to see more of Billy and daisys relationship. It seems to build up to them being together then nothing really planned out. Overall it was a great story"

victoria_stewart_6520 shared a tip "I really enjoyed it but it got some mixed reviews because it’s written as if you are reading the transcripts of an interview. i.e. Multiple points of view going back and forth. If that doesn’t bother you it is a great read."

ashley_craven shared a tip "I really liked Utopia Avenue too, which is also about a fictional band. Actually I think I liked it better than Daisy Jones & The Six! And I also really liked The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, also by Taylor Jenkins Reid."

sarahlee shared a tip "I couldn’t get enough of this book. It’s in a different format, more interview style but the story was SO GOOD. Lots of Stevie Nicks vibes from the era and such a great story of a fabulous decade for rock and roll. HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend and super pumped for the series on Amazon Prime to hear the music!!"

kaylee_wallace_5365 shared a tip "This book is amazing. I read it as an audio book and the way it is narrated really just helps make the style of the book that much better. Taylor Jenkins Reid is an incredible story teller. I would highly recommend this book."

ella_leitman_dixon shared a tip "Most books are quiet reads, but not this one. I found myself trying to sound out the music in the book - the songs literally jump off the page begging to be heard. TJR has skyrocketed to the top of my authorial list following Evelyn Hugo but this book holds a different, special place in my literary heart. I found solace in Daisy’s chaos and cannot wait to see the story come to life next year via Amazon Prime. Jeff Bezos, don’t do this book dirty or else 🔪 !!!"

jennifer_kolady shared a tip "such an interesting book and it’s so different from everything else i’ve ever read. the documentary style made the book that much more intriguing and seeing how each character looked at each situation decades later was so impactful on the progression of the book. it’s a book that left me with an empty feeling, which says just how great it was. loved it, definitely recommend it."

green_eggs shared a tip "Fun and insightful...a pleasant roadie trip following the rise to fame of a 60s rock band. It feels biographic and reads like a memoir."

shauna_dickson shared a tip "So believable it’s convinced me they were a real band-sad that they weren’t! One of those novels you cross your fingers for a tv show or movie pickup! 🤞🏻"

betweenthepines shared a tip "The interview style of reading, and how everyone had differnt perspectives in a days setting. The story line was very good as well"

alana_guinane shared a tip "Highly recommend the audio version—just amazing. You will find yourself going for long walks, unnecessary drives, and endlessly cleaning the kitchen, just so you can get more time to listen."

bess_gaus shared a tip "Amazing! I couldn’t put it down and really felt like I was right there with them. Highly recommend audio version also due to cast."

claire_winters_1002 shared a tip "i’m a sucker for a book that talks frankly about love, agency, and brings fame back down to earth; karen sirko speaks to my soul."

brittany_linson shared a tip "As someone who loved almost famous and has listened to 70s rock all her life, this book was perfect. #daisyjonesandthesix #historical_fiction #70s"

sarah_lynn_5035 shared a tip "An incredible audio book! Read by a bunch of different people and keeps you both day dreaming and on the edge of your seat. The author painted the picture of this fictional band so well, I found myself scouring the internet trying to find their music and more about them 😆"

ella_hughes_8248 shared a tip "I was so absorbed in the book that I forgot that Daisy Jones and the Six weren't actually a band. I was so disappointed when I got done with the book, looked up the song in the back of the book, and then remembered they weren't real! #5stars"

j_h_5894 shared a tip "I enjoyed it. Light at times. She tells the story from the point of view of many of the characters over a few years. I had not read a book like this before. Hope you like it."

paige_overbeck shared a tip "This is another one that I have “audio-booked” (whats the right term for that?) and it was outstanding. They used multiple narrators to tell the story. It was so well done that I couldnt believe it was fiction."

adelicia_trujillo shared a tip "So good, I pictured Stevie Nicks the whole way through. The descriptions feel so 70s, I'm not quite old enough to be sure of that though. Absolutely great book. 10/10"

samantha_paulino shared a tip "This is one of my favorite novels I have ever read. It was like stepping into Fleetwood Mac. It was everything you expect Rock n Roll to be, plus raw emotion. It is also written as a oral history, which I had never seen before in novel form and let me tell you, it WORKS. I was blown away by the master story telling in such a unique form."

kennedy_madgett shared a tip "Loved this book - it was like watching a rock n roll documentary! I was fascinated by all the characters and how they handled themselves. I was particularly fascinated by Camila & her loyalty and different perspective on relationships, it was refreshing. In terms of what I got the most out of from the book, most of it stemmed from Camila. Loved this and would definitely recommend to music lovers!"

charliekwon shared a tip "I'm going to start this by saying that I was very surprised at how much I liked this book. I was at the library trying to get Reid's The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo just to find out that I was 84th in the queue. So, I picked up the next book: Daisy Jones & The Six. Flipping through it at first threw me off. This book is written in a series of transcripts which is something I haven't really seen; I picked it up anyways. Instantly I was captivated. The rock-and-roll, edgy, drug and sex lore was brought back in a light that had me running circles around my room. It felt too real. I even tried to look up the songs from the book on Spotify. Let's just say when I realized they were in fact not real, I was a little more than disappointed. That's how authentic this book felt. Every single character had different mannerisms: they were all so different, yet so alike when it came to the passion in creating music. Reid's ability to take all these separate personalities and create such a beautiful narrative with them is honestly such a talent. GOD THEY WERE ALL SO COMPLEX I LOVE IT. I loved the transcripts more than I thought I was. Being able to hear one story from 6 or more perspectives really brought to light how different we as humans see events. And reading it with my own eyes really allowed me to grasp that idea. When reading Billy and Daisy's struggles with addiction, I was pleased with how emotional and raw and real Reid made it felt, she really showed the true dark nature of it all. Drugs and alcohol are so romanticized nowadays. The messages in this book are amazing, especially the feminism. I could not be any more pleased with the portrayal of women in this book. Lastly but definitely not least, THE MUSIC IN THIS BOOK. WOW. Reid really has a way with words. I'm in awe at the countless themes and stories she was able to share through them. They each are so unique and hold a special weight to them. In summary, read this book."
