SEXY. I struggle to find a better umbrella descriptor of Daisy & The Six, This book impressed me on so many levels that I'm going to bullet point the goodies:
* As a musician, this book captured the intimacy that hums down to your toes when you're on stage, behind your instrument, singing into someone else's harmony.
* Camilla & Billy. Daisy & Billy. Karen & Warren. The relationships β the breaking, making and ambiguity β jolted me.
* And can we talk about girl power? If you read Jenkins' Seven Husbands, this trope wont surprise you. The females in Daisy & The Six covered the spectrum of feminism, each wrestling with unique, but relatable head v. heart turmoils.
* Jenkins is untouchable in the art of dialogue.
* Additionally, seeing that this book is a fictional creation, the inclusion of the completed song lyrics are the understated, but most-stunning proof of Jenkins' talent.
