I think this may truly be my new favorite book. I want to immediately re-listen to it. I want to get a physical book and fill it with annotations and highlights. The complexity and candidity of Evelyn had such an effect on me. The obstacles she faced and the way she described overcoming them is beautiful. A story in self-worth, love, and absolute cut-throat scheming that had me laughing, crying, and clutching my pearls from start to finish. Nobody talk to me for a month, I'll be looking into TJR's other books and re-reading this one.
