”I spent half my time loving her and the other half hiding how much I loved her.”

I am finally taking the time to write a review and I promise I will try to keep my thoughts as coherent as much as I can.

There are no words to express how beautifully written this book is. Often, books that are hyped as much as this never live up to it but The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo exceeded all expectations.

Taylor Jenkins Reid always has such a unique way of storytelling and this is yet another prime example of it. The fact that this book also had beautiful LGBT representation made it even more of a great read for me. It spoke about not only the homophobia and the misogyny that is a part of the industry but in society in general, especially in that time period.

There's so much to be said about The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo but I think I will leave the rest up to you all to decide. This is an incredible read and you will not be left disappointed.
