Nothing like expecting!
After a super long wait, I was finally able to get my hands on a copy of Evelyn Hugo and I must say, it was definitely worth the wait.
Evelyn is such a complex character, written so incredibly well. I found myself grappling with my feelings toward her alongside Monique the whole way. How can one person be such a good person, while also continuing to do things that only a bad person would? Evelyn is dynamic and has been the most nuanced and realistic character I've had the pleasure of reading about.
The journey you take through Evelyn's life in this book will keep you on the edge of your seat. Through all seven husbands, Evelyn's life continues to get more and more interesting, more and more controversial, and your love/hate relationship with her will only continue to grow.
4/5 stars. A must read.

I want to hold on to this book and read it over and over again. I think I loved it so much because I was surprised by it- given the title, I thought it would be a fluffy romantic drama. It’s not at all. It’s deep and soulful and makes you fall in love and hate every character in the same way real people make you feel. It’s fun because it had that Hollywood glitz to it- but not too much. I loved every second of it.
