~*Daisy Jones & The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid*~

5 out of 5 stars! Another fantastic book by Taylor Jenkins Reid! I love "The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo" and I loved this book just as much. I really feel that Taylor Jenkins Reid's books read best as audio books and this was the best audio book I have listened to. The cast was phenomenal. Jennifer Beals as Daisy,Pablo Schreiber as Billy and Benjamin Bratt as Graham and  January LaVoy  as Camilla were brilliant but for me Judy Greer really knocked the role of Karen Karen totally out of the park. Karen also happened to be my favorite character. A wonderfully written,addictive and intoxicating novel that tells the story of Daisy Jones & The Six, the rock and roll scene from the 60's. Sex, drugs, rock n roll and of course love and heartbreak. The Six were doing well as a band, a hit here or there, your name on everyone's lips and yet there is something missing.

~*Evidence of the Affair by Taylor Jenkins Reid *~

5 out of 5 stars After reading "The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo" I knew I wanted to read more by Taylor Jenkins Reid and when one of the booktubers I follow mentioned this I immediately picked it up. I am so glad that I did. This little novella is told entirely through letters between two married couples. When David Mayer gets a  letter from Carrie Alsop informing him that she has found out about an affair between her husband and his wife a friendship grows between them. This was a lovely novel and Carries and David's growing friendship throughout the letters is actually very sweet. I don't really have a lot to say as the novel is short but I would definitely pick this one up. It is free to read on kindle or listen to via audible with kindle unlimited. I chose to listen to the audio version and I think that made the novel even better for me. Pick this one up. You won't be sorry!
