“The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo” by Taylor Jenkins Reid

Rating:

“The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo” was not a book I was going to read. I saw it perusing book stores with one of my best friends. We took a look at it and I said “Was she married to seven husbands in total? Or all at once?” After reading the description of the book I put it down and said “I think it would be more interesting if she was married to the seven husbands all at once.” We laughed and moved on from the book.

Recently, I have been seeing it everywhere. I still laughed at the joke I made in the bookstore until I watched a YouTube video. I have been watching “BookTube” more and more. One of my favorite BookTubers does a lot of YA, which I’m not really interested in, but she reviewed “The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo” because she also reads adult books as well. She raved about this book and said it was probably her favorite adult book ever written. So I borrowed the book from the library.

The Female Persuasion by Meg Wolitzer

Rating:

Barnes and Noble picked The Female Persuasion by Meg Wolitzer for their first official Book Club read in the spring season (the book club is taking place quarterly). I was on the fence about reading the book or joining the book club. That is, until 4 days prior, which happened to be the Sunday before the meeting.

 

I did not want to buy this book because it was not a book that I would have picked up if I had been left alone in a bookstore, and it wasn’t until Monday night that my parents picked up the book for me from their library (it was the only library around here that had it). On Tuesday, I swung by and picked up the book.
