Review of 'Daisy Jones & The Six: A Novel' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
[from my Litsy feed in 2019] Breezed through in a day. Mostly liked the interview/rockumentary format. Was definitely bored by 58% in, but persevered. Given the star ratings in Goodreads, LibraryThing, and Amazon, I wonder if I'm a freak or if most people have lower standards than they should (maybe both?). Most of the characters are really messed up and unpleasant. Sorry it hogged an Overdrive hold spot for months & glad I didn't buy it. Satisfied to have read it.
