Sinossi
Daisy Jones & The Six: il gruppo rock più mitico di tutti i tempi. I loro concerti riempivano gli stadi in tutto il mondo, le loro canzoni hanno acceso le notti di un'intera generazione. La loro storia è il racconto di un'ascesa folgorante, dalle prime esibizioni nei peggiori locali di Los Angeles al successo planetario. È l'incarnazione stessa di un'epoca e di uno stile di vita - sesso, droga e rock'n'roll. È la sintesi di un'alchimia perfetta, non solo sul palco: l'amore tra Daisy Jones - la splendida vocalist, spirito libero e inafferrabile - e Billy Dunne, il frontman carismatico e dannato. Eppure, il 12 luglio 1979, dopo un concerto memorabile, il gruppo è scoppiato. Nessuno ha mai saputo perché... Fino a oggi. Musicisti della band, manager, fan, parenti e amanti: sono tutti testimoni di questa storia, ma ognuno ha la sua versione dei fatti. E oggi, a quarant'anni di distanza, sono finalmente pronti a raccontarla. Un romanzo a più voci che crea una leggenda.

Yes! The series adaptation on Prime Video just released and it’s so far freaking good, especially the songs ! And here’s my review for this legendary novel of TJR! Daisy Jones and the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid is a captivating and emotional story that explores the rise and fall of a fictional 1970s Leggi tutto
Daisy Jones & the Six is a masterpiece. Incredible. Intoxicating. Unforgettable. Truly one of the most remarkable stories I have ever had the pleasure of reading. The moment I finished, I had to immediately start from the beginning again. I refused to let go. And yes, I did read it twice in a row. CW Leggi tutto
As someone who is a big fan of oral histories of pop culture things, and as someone who gives a rousing “sign me the hell up” to Taylor Jenkins Reid writing about historical Hollywood in any way: This book is a dream. When I am not reading books, I spend a lot of my time reading in-depth articles. So Leggi tutto
I know many people loved this book, and it's not as if I don't see why, but this choice of narration just really didn't work for me. I found Reid's The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo absolutely riveting from the very first chapter, but I thought the decision to write this book entirely in interview t Leggi tutto
Daisy Jones & The Six chronicles the rise to superstardom of the fictional band that came to define rock 'n' roll in the late 1907s, as well as the troubles that subsequently led to the band splitting up seemingly overnight and its members never playing together again. Going in, I was a little bit w Leggi tutto
Have you ever felt like there were two versions of a book out there? There's the version everyone you know reads. The one with the raving reviews. The one that everyone loved. Then there is the version you read. The one that is underwhelming and dry and was nothing at all like what you expected it t Leggi tutto
i finally got my hands on the audio of this and it is everything i thought it would be - the authenticity, the intrigue, the drama, the rock n’ roll, the emotion. this is a masterpiece and the six are the life and soul of this story. i CANNOT wait for the day when their songs become streamable on sp Leggi tutto
3.8 ⭐️ i enjoyed most of this but i highly believe it was the best in the very beginning and at the very end. i read this with the audio book and honestly only recommend reading it with the audio book. it’s a whole ensemble of narrators that really hit the nail on the head with each character. i’m co Leggi tutto
IS THIS AS GOOD AS THE SEVEN HUSBANDS OF EVELYN HUGO? That was my main question when I picked up this book. Sadly, no. There was a lot of potential but I felt like the story wasn't flesh out enough. I highly recommend listening to this one as an audiobook due to the format (interviews). Reminded me a Leggi tutto
