Reasons I Enjoyed the Book:
- Evelyn Hugo feels so human
- It discusses a lot of topics in one character’s life, which I liked because a person’s story is made up of the intersection of all of their identities (namely career, gender, sexuality, familial role)
I would read this again for a predictable telling of a person’s own humanity.

Moderate: Adult/minor relationship, Cancer, Child abuse, Car accident, Abortion, Pregnancy

With all that being said, there is a bit of unexamined fatphobia exhibited in the book that did hinder my enjoyment. It's brief but glaring to my eyes.
Otherwise this was a deeply moving story featuring plenty of old hollywood scandal and how marginalized people survive and thrive.
