If you love a book that pulls you in and refuses to let go, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is exactly that. I was completely intrigued by the storyline and found myself wanting to keep listening at every opportunity. Taylor Jenkins Reid masterfully creates a world of Old Hollywood glamour, secrets, and ambition, making it impossible to stop turning the pages (or in my case, pausing the audiobook!).
"Never let anyone make you feel ordinary."
