Novel Kicks Book Club: Daisy Jones and The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid

Hello April.

It’s a time for chocolate eggs, Hot Cross buns, April showers and a bank holiday weekend. What better excuse do we need to curl up with a good book?

The novel this month is one I have been wanting to read for so long. They’ve recently adapted it into a TV show and I want to watch that. However, I am one of those people that likes to have read the book first (it’s why I’ve not watched the adaptation of Alias Grace yet.)

So, in case you’ve not already guessed, the novel we’re reading this month is Daisy Jones and the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid.

It looks so good and I can’t wait to read. As usual, our book club is open to all, whether you, like me, will be reading it for the first time over the next thirty days or have already read it and want to chat about your thoughts.

As usual, I have put a question in the comments to kick off the discussion. I look forward to talking about Daisy Jones and the Six with you.

A bit about 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 . . .

I’m Laura. I started Novel Kicks in 2009. I wanted a place to post my writing as well as give other writers like me the opportunity to do the same. There is also a monthly book club, a writing room which features writing prompts, book reviews, competitions, author interviews and guest posts.

I grew up by the sea (my favourite place in the world) and I currently live in Hampshire. I am married to Chris, have a cat named Buddy and I would love to be a writer. I’m trying to write the novel I’ve talked so much about writing if only I could stop pressing delete. I’ve loved writing since creative writing classes in primary school. I have always wanted to see my teacher Miss Sayers again and thank her for the encouragement. When not trying to write the novel or writing snippets of stories on anything I can get my hands on, I love reading, dancing like a loon and singing to myself very badly. My current obsession is Once Upon a Time and I would be happy to live with magic in the enchanted forest surrounded by all those wonderful stories provided that world also included Harry Potter. I love reading chick lit. contemporary fiction and novels with mystery.
