EVERYONE KNOWS DAISY JONES AND THE SIX.
They sold out arenas from coast to coast.
Their music defined an era and every girl in America idolised Daisy.
But on July 12 1979, on the night of the final concert of the Aurora tour, they split. Nobody ever knew why. Until now.
This is the whole story, right from the beginning: the sun-bleached streets, the grimy bars on the Sunset Strip, knowing Daisy’s moment was coming. Relive the euphoria of success and experience the terror that nothing will ever be as good again. Take the uppers so you can keep on believing, take the downers so you can sleep, eventually. Wonder who you are without the drugs or the music or the fans or the family that prop you up. Make decisions that will forever feel tough. Find beauty where you least expect it. Most of all, love like your life depends on it and believe in whatever it is you’re fighting for.
It’s a true story, though everyone remembers the truth differently.

Never read a book like this before. It's set out in interview form with flashbacks of major events of the bands life. Really liked the format & style of writing & the way each characters dialogue flowed with each other & that their version of events differed at certain points creating a realism to the story.
Very good character development. Very realistic in the way each character interacted with each other & acted upon themselves. Found myself weather I liked or disliked the character sympathising at different points with each of them.
Overall I can't really fault this book. Loved the characters, the style & the way it addressed the major issues of not just stardom of today but of the public in general & would be surprised if anyone could read this & not relate to at least one of the dramas.
Have downloaded the audiobook so will be definitely listening to this in the upcoming future.
Star Rating - ⭐⭐⭐
