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.

maybe the best audiobook i've listened to? instantly searched for other audiobooks with a full cast.
I absolutely devoured this book. I’m a big Fleetwood Mac and specifically Stevie Nicks fan and when I heard that this book pulls a lot of similarities to their experience, I had to read it. I actually listened to the audiobook and I’m so glad I did. The dialogue is masterfully executed and not knowing who the interviewer is until the very end was so unexpected.
I did a “tandem” read with this while watching the show on Amazon prime. Each section of the book is broken down by year and the episodes correlate pretty well. It was interesting to explore both print and film this way-although there were differences in the TV series they overall did a great job representing the struggles, addiction, and emotions the book conveys.
Absolutely breath taking and I will recommend it to everyone.
3.5 stars! i definitely think the audiobook would have been a better experience because the characters did get jumbled up in my mind, but this book was so unique and fun! i would love to read another oral history like this
3.5 stars. Entirely readable and entertaining but ultimately pretty empty. Just made me want to go back and watch Almost Famous again.
