The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid
5.0

very good! I read it because it was being talked about a lot on twitter and at bookcon. The only thing is... if you don't like reading adult books you're not going to magically be interested in this one. It's not YA and doesn't have any YA qualities. The themes were about fame, marriage, divorce, types of love, etc. I really enjoyed some of the Hollywood jargon (I'm a filmmaker) and reliving the golden age. There were really specific films and actors and directors that made it feel like a real biography. I think that also made it kind of boring though because it is almost exactly like a biography. I felt like I'm too immature and don't have the attention span to understand the hype, but it's definitely a good book.
