I absolutely loved this book, it's definitely a new favourite!

Pros:

Taylor Jenkins Reid is absolutely amazing at bringing characters to life
I love how we get to see the ups and downs of the Hollywood glam life
Evelyn was such a complicated and fascinating character, I was captivated by her story
I loved that her story was told based on what husband she had at the time, but I enjoyed that the husband's were not actually what the story was about
It was interesting to see the differences between who Evelyn was and who she pretended to be
The friendship between Harry and Evelyn was my favourite thing, I loved that they accepted each other and were always there for each other

Cons:

I didn't really like Celia, I thought she was a bit unfair to Evelyn at times
I'm a bit unsure about the link between Evelyn and Monique, I liked that there was one but I didn't really like the reaction. I also don't feel like this bit wrapped up well.

Overall a really brilliant book with amazing writing and even better characters!
