I have a feeling this book is going to stick with me for a long time. As a fan of the golden era of Hollywood/film and a proud and out queer woman, so much of Evelyn Hugo’s story hit me like a brick wall and really connected with me on a deeper level. My heart ached for her and I loved the back and forth she had with Monique throughout the entirety of her telling her story on her terms.

By the end of the book, I cried because I felt so deeply for the characters, that’s how well written they were.

I thought this book was good but for me did not live up to the hype. Hard a hard time visualizing the characters and did not feel the story deeply. I felt a surface appreciation of the story but I was not engrossed by any means. For me it was a little above a "Meh". Characters were a bit flat, the main relationship was lovely but the timeline went too fast to grab me.

Easy to read with seeing how relationships change over decades in time. Glad I read it.
