Daisy Jones & the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid Finished on May 2, took 9 days to read 3 stars on Goodreads Genre: Fiction Rating 2/3 Fiction There were so many reasons why I was excited to read Daisy Jones & the Six. Several of my favorite blogs, podcasts, and friends recommended this book. I loved the author’s earlier novel: The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. And most notably, earlier this year Daisy Jones got the ultimate bump when it was featured by Reese Witherspoon’s […]

Sadly, the album is NOT on iTunes.

CBR11 Bingo – Canonballer Says This book has been popping up on ‘must read’ lists, and in bookstore displays all year, but in reading the description, I wasn’t sure it would be my jam. But then it was on the new releases shelf at the library, and there had been a couple recent 5star reviews here (Jen K, Manimama, and ardaigle), so I tossed it in my pile on a whim. The book is laid out like a VH1 Behind the Music interview, with […]

Bingo Square: Pajiba The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo was one of my favorite reads this year (review forthcoming, eventually, hopefully), so I was excited to realize Reid had a new novel out. When I started actually going through the Bingo board and looking through the Pajiba archive, I was even more excited to realize that I could read it for that square – I was actually trying to find Dustin’s article on Baby Teeth because I thought I might finally use this as the […]

CBR11 Bingo Pajiba square. I had read glowing write-ups of this book seemingly everywhere. An oral history of a fictional band did not seem at all interesting to me- I tend to ignore oral histories even of bands/movies/shows I have loved- but the rave reviews had my interest piqued. I’m so glad I got over myself. As I said, the book is written as an oral history provided by the members of the band, “the Six” as well as singer Daisy Jones, their management, […]

Dustin Rowles mentioned this book on Pajiba (Pajiba!), and that he loved it so much that he immediately sought out Taylor Jenkins Reid’s The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. I came to it from the opposite direction — I have loved everything else I’ve ever read by Taylor Jenkins Reid and jumped on the waiting list for this one pretty much the moment I heard about it. I was not disappointed. I am a huge fan of oral histories complied into a narrative. I used […]

Another of Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine Book Club picks strikes again. This is definitely a page turner and a great summer read. Might I also recommend having some good 60’s rock ‘n roll playing in the background as well? Sit under the umbrella or with an umbrella in your cocktail and enjoy. The basic plot here is pretty straight forward. A band from Pittsburgh called The Six and a singer songwriter named Daisy Jones come together to record a duet and the rest is history. […]

Zirza on A Gothic Classic for a ReasonIt's one of those wish-you-could-read-it-again-for-the-first-time books. I loved it.
Emmalita on “It came to something when you found yourself hoping that the footsteps you heard were ghosts.”I loved the ending! I don’t think it’s been out long enough to talk about why though.

Roland of Gilead on How can you give us the gift of a crazy character named Rando Thoughtful and then just as suddenly take that gift away? We need to talk, Uncle Stevie.I came across this randomly years after it was written because I was searching "Random Thoughtful. But I have the...
Emmalita on “Only you, Em, would refer to heartbreak as a distraction. I think I would have a more sympathetic response if I asked to marry a bookcase.”Oh my goodness, Gallifrey was beautiful. I’m sure her mittens were gloriously murdery.
