This was my third read of TJR and my favorite so far! I liked Daisy Jones and I enjoyed Malibu Rising but I can see why there is so much hype for The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo.
Well written and flawlessy told and I especially liked how a character from another book "crossed over". Not having lived through these decades, I assume many of these ideals in the story are true to their time, a time which has changed, though not always in the right ways. Heartbreaking and raw, a very enjoyable book. ...more

A really enjoyable read about the life of a (fictious) Marilyn Monroe-esque starlet and what it took for her to make it as an actress. It was interesting to read her backstory, but ultimately - all the husbands and her life felt a little 1-dimensional - except for her reading about her 1 true love. It was heartbreaking in the end.
Review to follow.
I loved this book. I loved hearing Evelyn's story over the years. Characters were extremely likable and believable.
