I really enjoyed this! It was fun to learn about Evelyn’s life with little bits of Monique’s life sprinkled in. I liked how the book was divided into 7 sections for Evelyn’s 7 husbands, but the book and Evelyn’s story was about so much more than her husbands.

A story following the life of a Hollywood elite that in the end tells more than just her life story. Shows that in life you make more connections than you’ve ever could have imagined.
