Where to start with The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo?
As I do not want to spoil anyone who has yet to read this wonderful story, I'll keep it as broad as possible without leaving out the biggest selling points of it.
Firstly, I could probably write a whole essay about it and still miss things to point out, that only come to mind months later - because that's what sort of book this one is. It made me think about so many things. It made me look at my own life, how I lead it and how I treat others. If a book does that, it's (most of the times) a very good book.
I'll admit that it took some time for me to get into the story but once I did, it had my full attention. There's Evelyn's story with the question at the forefront of how she got to marry 7 men. But somewhere within the narration you start to consider every other aspect of her life, her decisions, her character and her surroundings.
The way Evelyn's story is portrayed - by her telling it herself - is so honest, so blunt, and I LOVED that. Nothing's sugarcoated, not the mistakes of others nor her own shortcomings. It tells of life, raw and unabashed, of missed opportunities, of selfishness, of trying to be oneself and figuring out what this actually means and looks like for oneself.
I don't think any review will ever encompass everything this book is. It's one of those stories you have to experience yourself, as the thoughts it'll provoke will be so unique and so subjective. That's why I'll leave it at that with one last thing: READ THIS BOOK if you want to ponder and muse life and how different it is for everyone of us.
Unfassbar

die ersten paar Seiten war ich mir noch nicht ganz so sicher. Aber nach kurzer Zeit war ich süchtig. Lese es immer wenn ich Zeit habe. Egal ob auf Arbeit (auch wenn ich das eigentlich nicht sollte ^^) oder Abends in meiner Freizeit. Bin durch dieses Buch gefühlt garnicht mehr auf social Media oder am tv schauen. Ich lese immer wenn ich kann :)
