‘The Seven Hubands of Evelyn Hugo’ Movie Poster/Teaser Concept

I’ve been obsessed with the book lately and the spare free time I had lately lead me to create this. I’m pretty proud of myself for not wasting away time like the usual.

omg have you read them all? can you list them from your most favorite to least favorite? adfjdsbvjkbfn i have just bought daisy jones and the six and will start reading soon, malibu rising is STILL not out in my country this is homophobic

i haven't! i've only read the seven hubands of evelyn hugo, an all time favorite, and malibu rising, which is a very close second

i started maybe in another life, but i thought it was wlw and it's not, so i put it down for now to regroup my expectations. i think i'm gonna start one true loves, because ✨drama✨ and then get daisy jones and the six! i've seen people say they want daisy jones to be real as much as evelyn hugo and that alone is a big selling point for me

Liiiv so I came across reading Yoongi bday fics. It's cute ok but I have to thank you first for indirectly reminding me to read Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo!!! Some people have recommended me this book but I forget the title that the only I recalled is hubands and hugo lol. I'm currently reading the book and so far I'm hooked.

Anw about the fic, please tell Kid I love her so much for giving his man flowers because he deserved it. The whole thing, I mean dating in a bookstore is def my type, but that part of her giving flowers to Yoon is my fav part. 💞

Ahhhh I'm glad the fic reminded you!! It's seriously one of my fav books, it's just so good. You'll have to let me know how you like it once you finish it!

:(( isn't the idea of kid giving yoongi flowers just so precious? He was so bashful and happy, ugh. GIVE HONEY BOY ALL THE FLOWERS

I just finished reading The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, here are some quotes I saved bc this book shook me to my core

Spoilers!!

-

He'd convinced himself that his wanting me was my fault.

And I believed him.

-

Be wary of men with something to prove.

-

"It's on the house," he said, which I thought was the dumbest thing, because if there's anyone that should be getting free food, it isn't rich people.

-

"Heartbreak is loss, divorce is just a piece of paper."

-

People think intimacy is about sex. But intimacy is about truth. When you realize you can tell someone your truth, when you can show yourself to them, when you stand in front of them bare and their response is 'You're safe with me' - that's intimacy.

-

"[...] I'm bisexual. Don't ignore half of me so you can fit me into a box, Monique. Don't do that."

-

You do not know how fast you have been running, how hard you have been working, how truly exhausted you are, until someone stands behind you and says, “It’s OK, you can fall down now. I’ll catch you.”

-

"Evelyn?" Harry said, before getting off the phone.

"Yes?"

"You know what's happening, right?"

"What?"

"You're about to become the highest-paid actress in Hollywood."

-

[...] I have no idea that in less than a week, Evelyn will finish her story, and I'll find out what this has all been about, and I will hate her so much that I'll be truly afraid I might kill her.

-

"Can you believe it?" She said. "Two of them."

"You deserve them. The whole world should be giving you an Oscar every day, as far as I'm concerned."

-

[...] That seemed to be her pattern. I was a lesbian when she loved me and a straight woman when she hated me.

-

People were just starting to talk about the idea of bisexuality, but I'm not sure I even understood that the word referred to me then. I wasn't interested in finding a label for what I already knew. I loved men. I loved Celia. I was OK with that.

-

"If you are intolerable, let me be the one to tolerate you."

-

"You love me?" she said

"Oh, my God, what an understatement," I told her.

-

"To Evelyn," she said, lifting her glass in the air. "Who has lit up every goddamn room she ever walked into. And who, day after day, makes us feel like we're living in a dream."

-

It's always been fascinating to me how things can be simultaneously true and false, how people can be good and bad all in one, how someone can love you in a way that us beautifully selfless while serving themselves ruthlessly.

-

It was one of the last times we were all together, laughing smiling, happy. A family.

Because after that, I ruined it.

-

"Being bisexual didn't make me disloyal," Evelyn said. "One has nothing to do with the other. Nor did it mean that Celia could only fulfill half my needs."

-

"I'm not a good person, Monique. Make sure, in the book, that that's clear. That I'm not claiming to be good. That I did a lot of things that hurt other people, and I would do them over again if I had to."

-

And just as she was about to leave the microphone, she said, “And to anyone tempted to kiss the TV tonight, please don’t chip your tooth.”

-

"[...] I don't want to let you love me if you don't think you can lose me again. One last time."

-

"I have been married seven times, and never once has it felt as right as this. I think that loving you has been the truest thing about me."

-

The devastating luxury of panic overtook me.

And it has never left.

-

That's how my story ends. With the loss of everyone I have ever loved. With me, in a big, beautiful Upper East Side apartment, missing everyone who ever meant anything to me.

-

Evelyn was never going to let the thing that made her be the thing to destroy her. She was never going to let anything, even a part of her body, have that sort of power.

Evelyn is going to die when she wants to.

And she wants to die now.

-

I hate Evelyn, but I think I like her very much.
