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.

Rock star. Beautifully written so that we can understand that rock band life can be a struggle while creating great works of music. Sweet ending …

Good but not great!. TJR is my new favorite writer. I love her style. I love her story telling. You can tell she put a great deal of research into the music industry to make it feel real. I would have given it 4 stars, however, my ADHD brain could NOT get behind the interview style writing. It almost gave me a headache. Others love it though! I did also just come from reading Seven Husbands which I gave 5 stars so I think this book had a lot to live up to. I also don’t LOVE how it ended. There was so much built up tension and craziness that the way it ended felt anti climatic. All in all. Would recommend to a friend. Can’t wait to compare to the show.

Wow. There are so many words to describe this absolute wonderful book but all I can come up with is just wow. Wow. I loved every second of this book.

everyone has to read this book. i am not joking when i say that this book gives me life. i was instantly hooked from the very beginning. the writing is a different format (told in a documentary style) but i absolutely loved it. there was no slow parts (because of the documentary style) and i just loved the story. the writing was beautiful and it was just such an amazing book that after you finish you just sit there for a couple of days figuring out what to read next because nothing can come close to this book. all good things from me

Really, really enjoyed this book!. I wasn’t sure I would like the format or be able to follow but, after a few pages, I was hooked!

An Epic Rock Love Story. This book is worth the hype. It is everything I hoped it would be and more. It pays homage to the 1970’s music scene so well. The characters are complex and compelling. I could not recommend the book enough.

Couldn’t put it down. It’s incredible that a book written strictly “interview-style” can hold my attention for so long. I absolutely loved this book. Read it in one sitting! I don’t know if it’s because Almost Famous is my favorite movie, Fleetwood Mac is my favorite band, or simply that it’s a story unlike anything I’ve read before, but either way it got me HOOKED. The writing is incredible. You can tell how different each character truly is just through their words, which really paints the story. The band is so convincingly real it made me question if the Aurora album was on spotify. I would give anything to see this come to life! I have nothing bad to say about it, other than it worsened my Fleetwood Mac obsession!!!! Highly recommend

Incredible book!. I absolutely love this story. TJR blows me away with how amazing of a storyteller she is. I read this after watching the show but wish I got to read it before I watched because it was so good! 5 stars for sure.

It’s an interview. Didn’t realize it was written as interview.

Run of the mill. The book gets 3 stars for being a well written, flowing read. It holds your attention, absolutely. But it is so anti climatic. The ending is boring and really cliché. If you need something to just… occupy your brain for a bit without expecting much from the content emotionally, this is a good read for when you feel like that.

Love this book. This book was honestly amazing to me. I’ve never read a book with an interview format and I’d definitely read one like this again. I felt like I was actually there at all the concerts

Great. But I wish it was more raw and real.. Good Book. I have to say that I started reading this book, because “Almost Famous” is my favorite movie ever. My number one. And I like rock and I have a podcast where I talk about rock from this times, weekly. And I also love Fleetwood Mac. So I had high expectations and this was my first book by this author. I have to say that it was not what I expected. But it was very good. I feel that the format made difficult for the author to build the characters deep enough for you to actually connect with them. I feel like some (even though I like them all), specially Wareen, who I really like, he feels a little bit like a caricature sometimes. Graham thought, got raw enough that he made me cry with him. He was my favorite and the one I felt more real. But then others were a little bit too on the surface for the complexity they were supposed to have, for example: Camila, Billy and Karen. I needed the author to get deeper inside of them to understand them better. Daisy was ok, you are able to understand the girl, she is just a bit unlikeable too often. She victimizes herself at some points too much, but you get why and she redeems herself. Her parents story is unnecessary, if the author was going to build such a difficult to believe relationship between the parents and the girl, we needed way more context, or nothing at all, or just an open note of how those two are a couple of psychopaths directly. Because there’s not another way to understand her parents. But the rest is very good, the tour feels real. I have to say that I got hooked pretty late in the book when Graham and Karen broke up, because that was the moment where the book landed for me. When it landed and felt real.

10/10. Masterpiece. I wasn’t able to put it down.

Beautifully written. I had a very hard time turning away. The formatting is wonderful, which helps create a beautiful story that you can’t help but love. Daisy Jones and the band have touched my heart and will definantly touch yours too!

Daisy Jones and the Six. I enjoyed this book so much I read it twice!

Fun read. Great book, fun to follow the musicians in their journey

It was a cool story.. Was a cool story. I felt like the characters didn’t get interesting until the last 30 pages with the whole Daisy, Billy, Camila thing. Other than that 85% of the book was kind of boring and read like a day to day of the band haha

Best book read so far in 2023. such an amazing story, plot line, and made me wanna read this book and think abt it 24/7. I loved the characters, the descriptiveness. I loved how Daisy was so carefree. It gives me Fleetwood Mac vibes, and now since i’m done with the book, i’ll be watching the show!

enjoyable and easy to read.. I thought this was a perfect book for reading on the beach.

Great Read…. This book has been a book I have been thinking about reading for awhile. I’m so glad I did! I would recommend reading it and listening to Fleetwood Mac after it. 🖤🤍

Daisy. Not great but interesting.

so good!!. i loved every second of the book, Daisy Jones is a character I’ll remember forever.

Daisy Jones and The Six. Very difficult to read as the ENTIRE book is in the style of an interview. Probably is great as an audio but just can’t see anyone enjoying reading it this way. My fault for not checking reviews.

Blah. While enjoyed the dialogue writing style, i felt the story was a continuous loop about the same stuff.

Huge fan, but…... Struggled with the “interview style” format, and after 200+ pages, called it quits. Not sure why the entire book was written like this, regardless, did not enjoy,

Sex Drugs Rock & Roll. This might be my favorite book of all time! Gave me goosebumps several times. Intensely relatable and endearing. If you were ever fascinated by that lifestyle and that genre in time or consider yourself a musician/creative in any sense this is especially for you.

Wow. Couldn’t stop reading!!

Great read!. I enjoyed it!

Daisy Jones and the Six. As a major fan of 70’s music this was a blast to read. The author does a wonderful job of weaving all the internal love stories and still brings out rock n roll. And how do you not love Daisy.

so so good. reminded me of Almost Famous- such a great story and a unique way of telling it. an easy read too, i can’t wait to watch the show!

Idk what to say. Changed my perception of heartache, tore me apart, idk if I can move one.

The beginning… the middle… THE END!!!. Having general knowledge of what went on during the “Rumours” era of Fleetwood Mac provides a clear timeline of how the story will start, the drama and complicated love that will occur in the middle, and the sudden but expected ending of it all; but we, the audience, do not know the in between periods; the fights, the intimacy- that is not shared with the audience. Is any of this relevant or true to the band? No, they just provided the structure of how crazy rock n’ roll and it’s industry was in the 70’s. Taylor Jenkins Reid provided the story.

Couldn’t even finish. And I almost always finish books. So boring.

❤️💙💚🇺🇸. 🧑🏻‍🦲🧑🏻💚🇺🇸🍎🍏🍌

I WANT TO READ THIS FOR THE FIRST TIME AGAIN. IMMACULATE

I felt like I was deep into bingeing a documentary show about the band.. Such a unique way of telling a story, I felt like I was deep into bingeing a documentary show about the band. The story felt a bit predictable and repetitive at times, but the last couple of chapters are what bring it all together to make it such a great story and what really made me love it. The twist at the end, the perfect back and forth of perspectives happening in real time that brought it all to a close leaving you full of feels. *Chefs kiss*

Daisy Jones & the six. Loved! Love the style of writing as an interview. Cannot wait to see the series!

A fun, fast read. Very cute and heartwarming

Great read. Love this book, the format of the story telling and ultimately the storyline. It’s and easy and compelling novel from start to finish. Would love to see it as a movie too.

Daisy Jones & The sSix. Brilliant! As the band broke through into the big time, I felt the thrill of their expectations. As Daisy and Billy mixed ambition, brooding love and great talent, I felt the magic. Without hearing a note I felt the music - heard the songs of Zeppelin, Jefferson Airplane and Fleetwood Mac.

The Six. This was not your typical rock and roll story. It was a really sweet love story about the band members and their challenges with their feelings for each other.

unreadable. Kept reading hoping for the “inside “ story of what a rock band was like in the 70s and 80s…you know, sex, drugs and rock n roll. Never got there. Maybe the movie’s better.

in love.. absolutely loved this book sooo much.

❣️❣️❣️. Amazing!! I love it! It’s so different than any other books I read and I love the era! I can’t wait for the TV show!!!

Book was written terribly. Was very hard to get through I didn’t like how it was written and there was just nothing exciting about it.

Loved it. Incredible book, super cool format - read it in 2 sittings!

Waste of time.. If this subject matter is of interest to you, read a memoir of a real band. This book can’t help but be total cliche.

Unique. Unlike anything I’ve read before. Loved it.

Everything. I hoped for. No one can wreck me the way she wrecks me with her novels

Has potential. Didn’t like the interview style
