Audiobook Review: Daisy Jones and the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid

Synopsis:

Everyone knows DAISY JONES & THE SIX, but nobody knows the reason behind their split at the absolute height of their popularity . . . until now.

Daisy is a girl coming of age in L.A. in the late sixties, sneaking into clubs on the Sunset Strip, sleeping with rock stars, and dreaming of singing at the Whisky a Go Go. The sex and drugs are thrilling, but it’s the rock ’n’ roll she loves most. By the time she’s twenty, her voice is getting noticed, and she has the kind of heedless beauty that makes people do crazy things. 

Also getting noticed is The Six, a band led by the brooding Billy Dunne. On the eve of their first tour, his girlfriend Camila finds out she’s pregnant, and with the pressure of impending fatherhood and fame, Billy goes a little wild on the road. 

Daisy and Billy cross paths when a producer realizes that the key to supercharged success is to put the two together. What happens next will become the stuff of legend. 

The making of that legend is chronicled in this riveting and unforgettable novel, written as an oral history of one of the biggest bands of the seventies. Taylor Jenkins Reid is a talented writer who takes her work to a new level with Daisy Jones & The Six, brilliantly capturing a place and time in an utterly distinctive voice. 

My Review:

5/5 ⭐️

This audiobook was fantastic! A full audiobook cast that captured the voices of the characters perfectly. I flew through this book and absolutely LOVED IT! I can see why everyone is raving about this. The story was so good and I honestly wish I could forget everything that happened and listen to it for the first time again. The overall flow of the story was perfect and the ending left it open for something more to happen but behind the scenes. Like you WANT to know but you respect these characters enough now to say ‘nope’.
