The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo
Cut along the dashed lines and pass the cards around the table.
Where were you when you did most of your reading, and did you have a favorite cozy spot or snack pairing while curled up with Evelyn?
What was the first scene that made you sigh, gasp, or text a friend about? Walk us into that moment.
Evelyn shares her life by counting it in husbands. If you told your own story through a handful of meaningful chapters (no names required), what would you call them?
Which of Evelyn's relationships felt the most tender to you, and what about it warmed your heart?
The book lingers on the gap between a public image and a private self. When in your own life have you felt comforted by being truly seen by someone?
Old Hollywood glamour is such a soft blanket of a setting. What little details (a dress, a cocktail, a Sunset Boulevard moment) made you want to step inside the pages?
Evelyn makes choices many of us would never make, yet she is hard to stop rooting for. What did the book gently teach you about offering grace to complicated people, including yourself?
Without giving anything away, how did you feel as you closed the book? What stayed with you on the walk from the last page back into your own life?
