Book Review: The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid

 

**Possible spoilers ahead. You have been warned**

I have seen this book a while ago; everyone was reading it and absolutely loving it. But I kept putting it off thinking it's not a book for me.
Oh how I was wrong, but happy I finally read it. One of the best books I've read in a while.
My love might also be because I love and adore Elizabeth Taylor. This story is not about Elizabeth Taylor, but something about the story reminded me of her. And not just the countless husband's, even though that might have a little to do with it.

What can I say about this book without giving anything away. I think you truly need to read this book blind just like I did. I didn't even read the synopsis for it, I just knew it was about an actress and her seven husband's. Nothing else. 

I'll just keep this short and say how amazing Taylor Jenkins Reid writing style is. How she kept me captivated right from the beginning.
And of course my love for Evelyn Hugo, who is a fictional character, I know I know, but she is such a great character to read. She wasn't perfect, and made decisions I would never make, but I appreciate and understand her reasoning behind them. 
If a man can do it, especially in Hollywood, why do we look differently on women.

Alright enough because I have the temptation to spill all the beans, but you really need to go in this blind.
Read The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, you won't regret it. Oh, and have tissues on hand, you'll need it.


Until next time, happy reading
