The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid

5.0

Absolutely loved this book! I was always left wanting to know what was going to happen next, how things shook out with the next husband, why Evelyn had reached out to Monique in the first place. 

I didn't expect to learn that Evelyn was bisexual, and as someone who is also bisexual, it felt almost like I was seen as Evelyn described the nuance of being attracted to both men and women. To empathize with how hurtful it was that Max, Celia, and even Monique seemed to want to fit her into a box of either being straight or gay. 

I do wish we had more time to see Monique wrestle with learning about her father, as things felt like they ended quite abruptly after that. But maybe that was the point, since the story was all about Evelyn Hugo: meeting her, writing about her, and finally, accepting when she has chosen to say goodbye.
