My favorite book this summer has been Daisy Jones & The Six. Not that I am wishing summer away! Wait, let me restate that – My favorite book this summer so far has been Daisy Jones & The Six.
This novel by Taylor Jenkins Reid blew me away. I guess I am late to the party on this one since I found out that Amazon is already making the book into a miniseries. It will make a fabulous miniseries! I urge you to read it now so you can enjoy the book as written before watching anything inspired by it on the screen.
The book is unique and fun and impossible to put down! If you have never read a book in one sitting, this one may be your first!
Although the book is fiction, it is presented in a documentary style and would be very easy to believe as a documentary – with true-life images, complex characters, and fascinating detail. The story follows the formation of a (fictional) famous band (Daisy Jones & The Six) and the lives of its members during the 1970’s.
The life of the band happens while the reader follows the music scene in Los Angeles during the 1970’s – so fun!
Background interviews with the band members are included as well as the lyrics to the band’s songs!
This book makes me want to read everything Taylor Jenkins Reid has ever written – and I will!
Do yourself a favor and buy a copy. Don’t take it out from the library – the waiting list is probably way too long anyway! But you will want to own a copy so you can loan it out to all your friends!
Thanks for stopping by!
Take pleasure in simple things – like reading a fabulous book!
