Evelyn Hugo is an incredibly complex woman. I found myself impressed by her tenacity and willingness to do literally anything she had to do to make her goals and dreams a reality. In her retelling of her life I found her openness and self-awareness inspiring.
Taylor Jenkins Reid is a phenomenal author. The way she writes made this incredibly unbelievable story feel real. I loved reading this so much that I finished it in less than 24 hours.

Also, the ending was much more disappointing and anti-climactic than I thought it would be.
I realize my review is way more negative than I intended, so let me set the record straight: I loved this book. I just wanted to talk about my feelings about Monique, or lack thereof.

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 intimidatingjenniferbowman's review against another edition
