THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER AND TIKTOK SENSATION SOON TO BE A NETFLIX FILM 'Riveting, heart-wrenching and full of Old Hollywood glamour' BuzzFeed 'This wildly addictive journey of a reclusive Hollywood starlet and her tumultuous Tinseltown journey comes with unexpected twists and the most satisfying of drama' PopSugar From the author of Daisy Jones & The Six in which a legendary film actress reflects on her relentless rise to the top and the risks she took, the loves she lost, and the long-held secrets the public could never imagine. Aging and reclusive Hollywood movie icon Evelyn Hugo is finally ready to tell the truth about her glamorous and scandalous life. But when she chooses unknown magazine reporter Monique Grant for the job, no one is more astounded than Monique herself. Why her? Why now? Monique is not exactly on top of the world. Her husband has left her, and her professional life is going nowhere. Regardless of why Evelyn has selected her to write her biography, Monique is determined to use this opportunity to jumpstart her career. Summoned to Evelyn’s luxurious apartment, Monique listens in fascination as the actress tells her story. From making her way to Los Angeles in the 1950s to her decision to leave show business in the '80s, and, of course, the seven husbands along the way, Evelyn unspools a tale of ruthless ambition, unexpected friendship, and a great forbidden love. Monique begins to feel a very real connection to the legendary star, but as Evelyn’s story near its conclusion, it becomes clear that her life intersects with Monique’s own in tragic and irreversible ways. The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo is a mesmerizing journey through the splendour of old Hollywood into the harsh realities of the present day as two women struggle with what it means and what it costs to face the truth.

I am not sure I like it
What can I say.. It was easy and intriguing reading. However I don’t like Monique character. I was waiting for the moment when Evelyn will explain how she is connected to Monique and it was done only in the last 10 pages … Also too much lgbt cover So I am not sure I liked what I have read.

読みやすいのでおすすめ
日本語訳も出ているようですが、英語の多読訓練用には最適のテキストと言えます。英文は簡潔で易しく、理解しやすいストーリー。物語ですが、この長編は特にネタバレしないようにレビューを書く必要があります。ラストは少々残念な気がしました。

(2021 – 98th Book) A mysterious story of beautiful and tragic love
The editorial department of 《Vivant》 receives an offer for an exclusive interview from Evelyn Hugo, the great Hollywood actress of the past. However, there was one condition. The interview must be conducted by Monique, a first-year writer. If this condition is not accepted, the interview will be cancelled. Monique, however, had no idea of the connection with Evelyn. Why did the great actress ask for her as the interviewer? The magazine accepts her request, and Monique goes to Evelyn's apartment on a regular basis. She learns why Evelyn has been married seven times and that there is a secret behind it. At the same time, the sad reason that she was chosen as an interviewer is also revealed. ...... --------------------------- I was intrigued by the fact that many BookTubers in US were praising this best-selling novel, and since there seemed to be no plans for a Japanese translation, I decided to order the paperback. The language in which the book is written is so plain that I had no trouble reading it. The story moves along at a brisk pace, and my hand never stops turning the pages. No wonder it became a bestseller in the US. First of all, the fact that Evelyn has been married seven times is a good story for most gossip lovers. Speculation, conjecture, envy, jealousy, and condemnation swirled in and out of Hollywood. However, what started out as a woman's ambition to use marriage as a springboard to success in the movie industry, eventually became a beautiful and sad love story as the story behind the marriage was revealed bit by bit.: The story of Evelyn's repeated marriages to protect her relationship with "the one" she truly loved. The story reveals how America has been making a slow but steady progress in the half-century between the late 1950s and the early 21st century. I was also struck by the skill and beauty of the storytelling, and gasped when it was revealed later that the reason why Monique was appointed as the interviewer, another major mystery in the novel, intersected with Evelyn's life in a surprising way. When a mystery is revealed in a way that greatly betrays the reader's expectations and predictions, I feel unsettled because I am confronted with the fact that I, the reader, have been blind. This novel made me feel that unsettled feeling strongly as well as comfortably. I read an article that the film rights for this novel have already been purchased and are being considered for realization. I wonder who will play Evelyn and who will play "the one". I'm really looking forward to it. .

Captivating read
Moving and captivating. Heartbreaking and real. The seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo was a joy to read. I loved getting to know the main character and how her and the other characters’ stories unfolded. Taylor Jenkins Reid really captured the magnificence of Evelyn Hugo so brilliantly, I was completely bewitched by the character, just as I imagined her fans were with her in the book.

Fantastic read!!!
The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I really enjoyed this read! It was so entertaining learning about all seven of Evelyn’s husbands, but this book was nothing like what I expected it to be. It definitely gave me the WOW factor and surprised me in so many ways. I absolutely loved Evelyn’s personality. She was such a complicated, confident, and fascinating character, and I loved getting to know her throughout the story. The ending genuinely shocked me, especially finding out the real reason Evelyn wanted Monique to tell her story. I definitely did not see that coming! Overall, this was such an entertaining and emotional read, and I loved how everything came together in the end. Definitely a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ from me!

You will be hooked!

captivant, intense et plein de secrets
L’histoire est originale et très bien construite, avec une narration fluide qui donne envie de tourner les pages sans s’arrêter. Le personnage d’Evelyn est fascinant : complexe, ambitieuse et profondément humaine. Au fil de ses confidences, on découvre une vie marquée par des choix difficiles, des sacrifices et des relations marquantes. Chaque “mari” apporte une nouvelle dimension à l’histoire, ce qui rend le récit dynamique et jamais monotone. L’autrice Taylor Jenkins Reid réussit à créer une atmosphère immersive, presque cinématographique, avec des thèmes forts comme l’amour, l’identité, la célébrité et le prix du succès. Petit point à noter : le livre est en anglais, donc il faut avoir un niveau correct pour en profiter pleinement. En résumé, une lecture prenante et émotionnelle que je recommande sans hésiter. Parfait pour celles et ceux qui aiment les histoires profondes et les personnages marquants.
