In the end, Billy Dunne and Daisy Jones had my heart singing, soaring, and crushed.

When this was exactly what Taylor offered her reader in the final pages, I could not have loved that inclusion more. I don’t know if I’m alone in this, but whenever offered a glimpse of the lyrics-with one or two lines of a verse-I wanted so badly to read each song in its entirety. It will become impossible not to impulsively search 'Daisy Jones & The Six' on Spotify or Google because these characters, this story, was written to feel so real. Given that this book read like the oral history of the band, there are many times you will feel as if these are real people and not just a creation from the mind of its author. From the avocation of 'peace and love,' the subtlety in the inclusion of the second wave of feminism to the sex drugs and rock and roll that was the '70s rock era. Taylor did a wonderful job of capturing the nostalgia and feel of this time setting perfectly.

Some of the best rock and roll of all time was recorded during this time period-it was the perfect era to use in the creation of a book such as this-and it was evident that this period was very well-researched. As a fan, the fictional spin on an iconic band such as Fleetwood Mac really worked for me. The dialogue jumps between all seven members of the band, their management team, and from time to time people of great importance to them, in a Behind the Music-style production.Īs I’m sure many other readers will tell you, it is difficult not to draw thoughts of Fleetwood Mac. This story is presented like reading the transcript to a documentary a written interview.


The form of this book is one that I particularly enjoy. Written to portray the good times and bad times of a band trying to make it big in the late '60s/early '70s, I was immediately drawn to this title. "Jumping into the fictional world of Daisy Jones & The Six was an emotional roller coaster I was not prepared for. A post shared by Marie Claire photo posted by on
