“Doesn’t it bother you? That your husbands have become such a headline story, so often mentioned, that they have nearly eclipsed your work and yourself? That all anyone talks about when they talk about you are the seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo?”
And her answer was quintessential Evelyn.
“No,” she told me. “Because they are just husbands. I am Evelyn Hugo. And anyway, I think once people know the truth, they will be much more interested in my wife.”

It was witty, heartbreaking and so damned well-written! The characters were well fleshed out, and at times it felt like they were real people in my life. The audiobook performances were also fantastic, and I’m sure played a big part in why I loved it so much.
Whenever I wasn’t reading this book I was wishing for the time when I could return to it again.
I totally get the hype it has gotten and can say that it is certainly deserved. I can’t wait to see how the film adaptation turns out, but I think it’s going to be really hard to beat this.
