Evelyn Hugo is a superbly well written character. She is complex and her story is so fascinating. I was captivated by her as if she was really a super famous movie star, and I loved her for how she acknowledges and tells her story truthfully.

IT WAS REALLY FUCKING GOOD!
There was romance, drama, an old hollywood aesthetic, tragedy and a subtle sense of dread and mystery all through it. The character are all flawed and selfish and yet are all too likeable for you to really care. Maybe that's just the sleep deprivation talking but if you were to ask me this book is definitely worth a read.
