Ich habe das Buch wegen des Hypes angefangen und kann sagen es ist den Hype wert. Es ist definitiv nicht mein Go-to Genre. Obwohl ich auch nicht weiß in welches Genre ich es einordnen würde. Das Buch ist im Prinzip wie eine fiktive biographie geschrieben. Man erfährt alles über das Leben von Evelyn Hugo, die ihr Leben in vollen Zügen gelebt hat. Evelyn Hugo hat alles getan was nötig war, um an die Spitze zu kommen. Wenn sie eines nicht war, dann ist es naiv, sie verstand wie die Welt funktionierte und machte es sich zu nutzen. Sie erlebte Liebe, Leid, Glück, Ruhm, Verlust, 7 Ehen, das  Muttersein und alles was das Leben zu bieten hat. Was ich an dem Buch so mochte, war, dass ich an keinem Punkt geahnt habe, wie die Geschichte enden wird. Der Leser erfährt auch von Monique, die Evelyns Biografie auf ihren Wunsch schreiben soll. Doch warum ausgerechnet Monique das Buch schreiben soll erfährt man erst am Ende. Mir hat der Schreibstil auch sehr gefallen und wie das Buch aufgebaut war.

It felt like Carrie Soto was a copy of Evelyn, but why does this writer keep writing about white latin women and pretending the world sees them as brown?

Beautiful story, I read this really fast and I am usually a slow reader. I loved how complex Evelyn’s character is. Such a good book

This book made me feel a wide range of emotions I've honestly not felt in other books in a while.

They dealt with almost all the different types of relationships possible 
I loved the relationship between Evelyn and Harry 
And the motherhood concept of both Evelyn and Monique.
And the last line of the book of course🫶🏻.
