From the author of THE SEVEN HUSBANDS OF EVELYN HUGO and the bestselling MALIBU RISING

'I LOVE it . . . I can't remember the last time I read a book that was so fun' DOLLY ALDERTON

Everybody knows Daisy Jones and the Six.

Their sound defined an era. Their albums were on every turntable. They sold out arenas from coast to coast.

Then, on 12 July 1979, Daisy Jones walked barefoot onto the stage at Chicago Stadium. And it all came crashing down.

Everyone was there.

Everyone remembers it differently.

Nobody knew why they split. Until now . . .

Part juicy celebrity tell-all, part A Star Is Born . . . Be prepared to read it in a single night.
I devoured DAISY JONES AND THE SIX in a day, falling head over heels for it. Taylor Jenkins Reid transported me into the magic of the 70's music scene in a way I'll never forget.

I am not generally a fan of contemporary fiction, but this was something else! A must-read, for sure.

This is a brilliant book really brought to life as an audiobook. Performances are all excellent, the story unique and so refreshing after the hundred clone detective, unthrilling thrillers and Gone Girl books that are everywhere right now.

I love the way this never tried to be a story where all worked out well, it was just an honest account of a band that was believable. I would have loved it to have gone on a bit longer.

Fabulous . A gem of an audiobook

Thoroughly enjoyed this! The story is believable and I finished it in less than 24 hours. A much faster read than 'the seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo' by the same author which I also liked a lot. Like 'the seven husbands...' this audiobook also transports the listener back to a different era. The interview format worked very well on audio and the cast of narrators did a spectacular job. I thought the last few lines were a bit over the top but otherwise definitely one of the best books I listened to in the last three months. I especially liked the portrayal of the female characters Kamila and Karen. They were interesting and complex. The narrator reading Daisy was outstanding in embodying both her strength and vulnerability.

Transported into a different era

The high quality of the full cast performance enhances an already richly authentic world of 70s hedonistic California musos.
The tale unfolds tracking the trajectory of the titular band, the multiple POVs highlighting the complexity of group dynamics and enabling a nuanced exploration of relationship dynamics and the almost suffocating narcissism of this creative world.
Jenkins Reid can always be relied on to create dynamic and powerful female characters who charge the story with charisma and energy, ultimately steering the narrative to its
conclusion.

Splendid cast performance

I adored this book... So disappointed that the band described isn't real! I would love to have listened to their music. I was so invested in the characters I didn't want the story to end.

Just listen to it
