Book the 7 husbands of evelyn hugo6/27/2023 Roxanne is a granddaughter of a movie studio head but she decides to strike out on her own as a Hollywood agent. I got them, but this old Hollywood book had meat on its bones. What a ride!!! I was expecting a light-hearted story about the glamorous world of 1950s Hollywood with Cary Grant, Ginger and Fred, Rock Hudson, and the like. This was an easy pick for a list of the best romance novels of all time and might seem like an unusual pick for books like A Man Called Ove but, both Ove and Evelyn are seeking to change their lives and in doing so, change for the better. Taylor Jenkins Reid slays with this story finding the perfect balance of glamour and grit. The story seems so candid that I honestly forgot that Evelyn Hugo was not a real celebrity. The drama and suffering add dimension to the story that makes it so much more than fluff, though the inner workings of Hollywood were fun to read too. The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins ReidĪ tell-all about a fictional Elizabeth Taylor- esque celebrity’s rise to Hollywood stardom, her seven husbands, and the true love of her life.Įvelyn Hugo has asked an unknown reporter, Monique Grant, to write her life story in a no-holds-barred book. There is a bit of mystery around why Monique was chosen and Evelyn certainly has her fair share of hardships as she claws her way to the top.
