*I needed one more audio book before my winter break 2025 began. I came across this title on Audible and had heard several staff members talking about how much they enjoyed the story. I wasn't sure it was for me, but decided to give it a shot.
What It's About - Five Things You Need to Know... *Monique Grant is a writer, but isn't going too far in her career.
*When Hollywood Actress and Legend Evelyn Hugo requests her for an interview, Monique can't believe her luck.
*After meeting with Evelyn Hugo, Monique learns she is going to interview the star, learn about her life, and then write a book that will be sure to sell millions.
*The two women spend countless hours while Evelyn Hugo shares her life story, including the ups, the downs, and the seven husbands.
*As Evelyn's telling of her story is coming to an end, Monique learns why she was chosen to be the one to write the biography. What I Thought of It - Five Observations/Reflections... *This was an excellent narration of the novel. The narrators were easy to listen to and the telling of the story was very interesting.
*Going into the story, I wasn't sure it was for me, but I actually ended up really enjoying the listening of the novel.
*There wasn't anything too "deep" throughout the plot, but the life story of Evelyn Hugo was fun, engaging, and pure Hollywood.
*I kept thinking something "big" was going to happen, and it did toward the end, and I must say I was quite surprised. I didn't see it coming.
*There were also several touching moments and I must say touched my heart on more than one occasion. Who Should Read It... *I know lots of readers have read this book and others by Taylor Jenkins Reid, but if you haven't I would recommend this one and the audio version because it was well done. This is also a great pick if you have looking for a face-paced story with interesting characters and lots of Hollywood "stuff". Happy Reading! Rating... 4 out of 5 stars
