This book completely lived up to the hype for me. It was funny, reflective, twisted and I was hooked the second Evelyn's character begins speaking. I was so impressed to see a story fit for a soap opera or telenovela become knotted up with a commentary on celebrity, women's objectification, greed, pain and love. This book was written with a capital W! This book was edited with a capital E! High school English teachers everywhere should ditch Gatsby's green light for Evelyn's emerald dresses.... 💚
