Daisy Jones and the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid is sure to take you back in time to the 70s. This realistic-fiction novel is loosely based of real-life 70s bands, such as Fleetwood Mac. It tells the story of a 70s rock band through present day interviews from the band members. It starts out by introducing Daisy Jones, who lives in California, who comes from a wealthy family, and is a talented singer.
Kiss and Tell is a story about Hunter, a boy going through a hard breakup with his boyfriend. A boy who is also in a band that is widely popular. But he doesn’t know how to be the perfect gay boy for the band. Stuck between things The Label wants from him and the new relationship he’s falling into with another band’s drummer, Hunter is stuck. But when the media’s idea of him is changed after some texts get leaked, he must juggle his actual life and what people want from him.
Hopepunk is a story about Hope Cassidy. A girl who grew up in an extremely Christian household being told that rock was the Devil’s song. But this was nothing compared to her sister Faith, who had to lie about her relationship with the record shop cashier, Mavis. But when their younger sister rats Faith out, she makes the decision to run away instead of going to the horrible facility her parents suggested. Her family is now in pieces and Hope decides she wants to rebel.
Everyone wants to be Daisy Jones. She has it all — talent, beauty, charisma. Meanwhile, Billy Dunne’s band, The Six, are so close to fame — they just need something extraordinary to push them across the threshold. That something extraordinary, a producer realizes, is Daisy Jones. Nobody knows what it is, but when they’re all together, they make magic. Their first album, Aurora, rocks the country, propelling them to the top of the music scene. But behind the curtain, nothing is as it seems.
