All Your Perfects by Colleen Hoover

 

Quinn and Graham’s perfect love is threatened by their imperfect marriage. The memories, mistakes, and secrets that they have built up over the years are now tearing them apart. The one thing that could save them might also be the very thing that pushes their marriage beyond the point of repair.

All Your Perfects is a profound novel about a damaged couple whose potential future hinges on promises made in the past.

I am late to the party and only discovered Colleen Hoover this year when my mum brought me a copy of Verity which I absolutely loved. I have now just finished my second book by this author called All Your Perfects and it was another wonderful read.

This book focuses on infertility and the effect it has on not just the individual but also on a relationship, how men and women deal with the issue in different ways and also shows how the lack of communication can have unnecessary and dramatic effects on a relationship.

Quinn and Graham are both easy characters to love and because we meet them at the same time they meet each other we follow their whirlwind romance from the start and because of the situation that resulted in them meeting in the first place I already was hoping for a happy outcome for them both. The love they both had for each other was exciting and heartwarming, the kind of romance we all crave when looking for our long-term partner.

The author has an effortless flow to her writing and sweeps you away speeding through the pages with ease and before you realise it your already half way through the book in no time. The chapters are short and sharp alternating between Then and Now in their relationship. The first half of the book is lighter and enjoyable and then towards the end of the book things start to get heavier and emotions start running high and I have to confess that I did surprise myself at one point when I had a tear rolling down my face, my heart broke for them and the unfairness of life sometimes.

This is such a raw and honest novel that highlights a very real topic that so many couples are going through in life and so this one will certainly leave a lasting impression on me. I can certainly see why so many people love and rave about Colleen Hoover books because I certainly feel like I have been missing out but at the same time am excited to still be able to make my way through her huge backlist of books if they are all as promising as the two I have read so far.
