I truly understand the hype over this book. Taylor Jenkins Reid did such an amazing job with this book. It was not all what I expected going, but so much better. I flew through book but I wish I had paced myself. The last third is heavy and emotional so I definitely recommend not rushing through it. There’s a theme I typically hate when done in other books, but Reid does it very gracefully.

It was definitely inspiring but not my kind of book. I had to push myself to finish it. Though the shock at the end was worth it.

For me, a sign of a good book is one that makes you think after. And the Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is going to sit with me for a long time.

It's filled with characters you root for despite them being kind of awful people, and characters you find yourself empathizing with despite wanting to hate then. No one is truly innocent in this book, no relationship is uncomplicated, and it's thought provoking from start to finish.

Ok I got tired of classifying which trigger warnings are minor or major so put almost all of them as moderate. Based on the trigger list the book might seem intimidating
