Book Review of The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is not the type of book I would expect to pick up in a million years. I only did so because it was my book club’s choice. Frankly, the thought of following the glamour of a Hollywood sensation and reading about her failed love affairs held as little appeal to me as watching Love Island. My unconscious, or perhaps semi-conscious, bias led me to think it would be badly written, entirely superficial, and dull. How wrong I was. I have to say that I am now recommending The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo to anyone who passes my front door.
