A review by vaishnavi_jadhav
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid
3.0
Before reading this book, I used to wonder why there's so much hype about it all over the internet. And now that I've read it, I can say that the hype is real.
Evelyn, a famous actress, is finally ready to talk about her life - more specifically her seven marriages. She chooses Monique - a not-so-established writer to write her biography. And then the book takes us on a journey where we see how Evelyn emerged as one of the most popular stars in Hollywood and as a most charismatic person you'll ever meet. We see each and every character evolve as the book progresses.
The one thing I like about this book is the portrayal of the characters - it's so diverse, unique, effortless and so real. Evelyn has such a complex persona and the book showed every aspect of it - her unconditional love, her hatred, her guilt, her passion, everything. Evelyn's words of wisdom are very useful. The portrayal of love and friendship in this book is adorable. Each and every relationship discussed in the book was deep and meaningful.
Definitely worth reading.
