This was my February book club pick and overall everyone enjoyed it.
I listened to this on audio which I loved because it felt like I was reading a memoir which if you aren’t new here then you know it’s no secret I absolutely love memoirs.
There is a lot of hype around this book and I was worried about going into it and seeing where I would fall. Overall I really enjoyed this - had I not listened on audio I don’t think I would have enjoyed it AS much. It was a solid 4 star read and I would recommend it. The lessons along the way and the overall conclusion was very well done.
A Hollywood starlet seeks out a young woman who works for a magazine to write her life story. During the book Evelyn Hugo (the Hollywood starlet) reflects back on her life and her seven marriages she had during her lifetime. She covers everything from fame to life to love to loss and you might be surprised at some of the things someone so prominent in the spotlight actually has never showed the public eye.
