I read Evelyn Hugo first and adored that, but Daisy Jones didn't hook me. Still a great book, great character studies, etc. ( ) 3.5/5 - the author so transparently reuses the same narrative skeleton of its predecessor, the seven husbands (which I very much did enjoy) but instead of Hollywood, it’s the music industry. Once again, it’s the same beautiful woman reflecting on her tumultuous relationships, celebrated career and sad ass childhood with an unnamed journalist This book made me feel two things: First, I refuse to believe this band never existed, and these people never lived. Second, I have an URGE to listen to their music, WHICH DOESN'T EXIST OMFG. This book seems SO EFFING REAL but not like historical documentary boring type of real, more like a journey and you're there from the very start. You're like a mom at the sidelines cheering them on through all their milestones, so when this book ended and HOW it ended saddened me like a mother. Once again, this book is not boring even from the start. Get through 20 pages and you'll be hooked. It's so believable. I want to be friends with Daisy Jones. It's so depressing this band never existed. This novel is constructed as patched together snippets of 21st-century interviews with members of a fictional 1970s mega rock band, along with some other players, like their manager, producer, rock critics, and a spouse. I was not a fan of the raw (fictional) oral history structure, but the story was entertaining and it held my interest throughout. The writing suffers at times from predictability, some gimmicks, and some cliches, but overall it was a fun read. Oddly, I had read a review praising the “complex” characters, but I found them rather flat, because of the structure probably.
Like I said, this was a good book. The writing was good, the scenes were vivid, the characters had depth. I just simply didn’t like it on a personal level. PrémiosDistinctionsNotable Lists
"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 and 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. Another band getting noticed is The Six, 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 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"-- Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
