The Overbooked Society discussion

Here we can talk about the BOTM The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo

I literally created a favourites shelf just to put this book on it

Omg I can’t wait to read it this month! Finally!!!! And I can share my thoughts?! Love yallll

I'm excited to read this!! I've heard it's really good and it's been recommended to me by one of my friends.

nooo i wish i would have waited, i read it yesterday 😭

😠
but i hope u all enjoy it more than i did lolll

I just bought it, I'm so excited :))

I'm not so sure about it. I'm still sour from the previous BOTM, but I'm gonna read it and I really hope it turns out good.

This book’s update has already come in my feed like 50 times ??
It still looks intimidating, maybe I’ll buddy read this.

I'd love to buddy read it with you if you don't mind. Others can join us too, it can be really fun.

...There are 19 holds on this book at my library so I don't think I'll be getting it this month unless I read it in a pdf or buy it. I'll probably read it in a pdf.

Great ! let’s buddy read, it’ll be fun 😁.

I’m not in any hurry, so let me put a buddy read request and see if more people join.

I read it with you!

Great ! I’ll make a folder. Or can you make a folder ?
I don’t know exactly what to do.

Ahhh perfect timing as I just picked this up the other day!! I’ll put it at the top of my TBR queue with this haha

Just getting started with this one!

... i may have read 80% in one sitting. this is so good.

Yeah tell me about it. I scheduled two husbands a day and one last one for the last day, but I didn't know Don was going to be sooooo long😂 so I've read 150 pages in one sitting and it is amazing. So far, I really don't regret picking it up.

Finished the book. It was good, I liked it. I didn’t love it like everyone else because I never liked historical and celebrity fiction. My favorite character is Harry Cameron, his death was hard to read.As for the rest of the husbands, I don’t even remember their names, they are just timelines in my head. I liked Evelyn too, she isn’t a good person but she still did what she had to do and I respect that. Though, at times she did made me angry. I liked the main love interest too even though they did acted selfish and ignorant at times.

I liked the relationship between Evelyn and the main love interest, but felt that it was developed too fast. I knew the deaths were coming, but it was still heartbreaking to see. Ending left me feeling a bit empty.

Ok fine, I’ll admit something. I didn’t like the story that much. I gave the rating based on how hyped the book was and not based on how much I enjoyed. This books is probably with five or four stars but for me…

2.5/5…sorry.

What the hell Unknown? You can't just come here and say that one character's death was hard to read😐😂 Maybe we still haven't read it and don't want it spoiled and are just curious what is going on the discussion. Plz at least say that there are spoilers🤦‍♀️

Moonlight…Evelyn is alone in the future, and the rest of the people are implied dead. That was made clear in the first chapter itself. Unless, you expected them to pop out from somewhere ??
My favorite character is dead, so it was hard for me to read about how he died. Not because of anything else.

Now, I didn’t say how they died, that would have been spoiler.

I finished reading it, I loved everything the writing, the characters, the vibes, the tragedy. The way I was tearing up towards shit this book is really good.

If anyone wants to talk more about the book just dm me!

5/5⭐️

I don't know maybe I was so absorbed in the story of Evelyn that I blocked out every other thing and this came out as a spoiler😂

Ok so shouldn't we start voting for the October BOTM? I highly suggest a two round poll. First a poll for choosing the genre and then a poll for choosing the suggested books of that genre here and maybe some additions from the mods. What's your idea?

btw I totally loved this month's BOTM since I really do like Hollywood glamour and those kind of things. The writing style and the plot was also really deep and beautiful. It was really a breath of fresh air from the previous BOTM.

My personal request …pls choose mystery and keep some form of checkmarks
I would love to discuss with you all.

i would love a murder mystery for october and the checkmarks is such a goods idea.

I third that mystery and checkmarks, but please choose something heavy, deep and intriguing. Maybe something like Agatha Christie or Paula Hawkins, not a lame one that doesn't make any sense.

Hellooooo mods! September is ending and we have no plan for the next BOTM

Huh, if there is no BOTM decided can we just discuss one here ??

Idk any mystery novels though…

I would like to get an actual good one we can discuss together and kinda share our theories ??

Ok, today is the last day of the month
And we still have no BOTM…

Sorry I had some connection problems. Well the uni has started recently, but I think I can take over the BOTM for this month only as a temporarily mod if it's ok with everyone

Ok so...what is your plan ??

Well I did create a poll and invited everyone in it. I think I'll just wait a little more till we get more votes and it will be announced as the October BOTM. Good?

MoonLight wrote: "Well I did create a poll and invited everyone in it. I think I'll just wait a little more till we get more votes and it will be announced as the October BOTM. Good?"

Hmm..I think I missed it, let me search..

It might not be in the group's poll since I'm not an official mod, but I did invite everyone in this group, so it should at least be in your notifications.

Yes…I found it in the polls section and chose the most interesting cover.

Oh good I was gonna share the link here:

https://www.goodreads.com/poll/show/2...

I actually chose And then they were none,
I know I’m already reading it. But I like it’s cover.

honestly your so organised that if you would like i can make you the offical mod for BOTM

I'd be honored to be granted the title and duty☺

But only the mod for that cause I'm too busy to be able to take on other responsiblities

On second thought, let's how this one will work out and then we can decide
