Evelyn Hugo is a duplicitous slut. Evelyn Hugo is a philanthropist. But most of all, Evelyn Hugo is a woman who has been systematically failed by society.

This book will 100% go down as a modern classic. The writing is stunning and alludes to questions you might have all the way through, and then when you get to the last 25% or so, you get bombarded with answer after answer. I cried, I laughed, I was shook, and I was angry. For a piece of fiction to invoke these intense emotions and for me to be grateful for it truly shows that Taylor Jenkins Reid has written a masterpiece.

Please, my god, read this book as soon as you can. I promise you that you aren't going to regret it.
