I understand the insane hype about this book.
This was magnificent. From the very beginning it captivated me. The story was alluring and the character of Evelyn was compelling. I absolutely loved seeing all aspects of her life. The author did a fantastic job of making Evelyn complex and we see that in the decisions she made throughout her life.
The story was paced excellently and the writing style was simple and had some very profound moments. Knowing very little about the story going into it, I was surprised at where it went.
Overall this was excellent. Amazingly written and deeply emotional. I cried. I will forever cry over this story.
