i wish i could give this book more than 5 stars. it moved me. it made me laugh. it made me cry. it will stick with me forever. as a bisexual woman, it made me feel seen and known to know that evelyn was so adamant about being known as bisexual and not lesbian. she is two halves. not just one. i loved this book so so much. highly highly recommend.

The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is a beautiful LGBTQIA historical romance which will tear your heart in half.
I throughly enjoyed the complexities of Evelyn as a character, the reflections from both her and Monique were so refreshing. I loved how the book was sectioned by each husband, going back and forth from the past and the present.
Remarkable!
