Taylor Jenkins Reid's The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo was excellent. I was engrossed from the very beginning - learning about Monique, the writer trying to make a name for herself as she's in the midst of a separation/divorce with her husband, to diving into Evelyn Hugo's history and what she did (and was willing to do) for fame. I felt like I was there in Evelyn's world, watching her battle her demons while trying to be a big movie star. There was also the suspense of getting to the end of the novel to figure out what the heck Monique had to do with Evelyn and her world, which to me, was a highlight of the novel.

I loved all the characters - from Evelyn, Monique, Harry, and Celia to, of course, Evelyn's husbands (well, I didn't love ALL of them). I thought it was pretty innovative for TJR to tell a story from this perspective, going through the years of someone's life through the eyes of when she was married. It was intriguing and thoughtful, and it made sense. I couldn't put this book down - it was readable, digestible, and insightful, and I just enjoyed it through and through. I think the beginning started off a little slow for me, and I must admit it's a bit weird to read about a Hispanic and lesbian main character from a cis-white woman's point of view.
