All Your Perfects


Review: All Your Perfects - Colleen Hoover - July 2018



You know how you get books that you are a little worried to start as they have that feeling that they could be angsty and a bit too much emotion that you can handle at the moment. That's what Colleen Hoover's latest book was like for me. Unlike her previous books where the characters are younger, this one the characters I imagined were late 20's to mid 30's. Quinn and Graham met on what could be the worst day of both of their lives. They met each other the day they found out that their partners were cheating on them with each other's partners. They managed to click on that day, and Graham gave Quinn his number and told her to give him a call after her rebound date. A few months later, the pair runs into each other and pick up from there. Months later, wedding bells ring, and the couple ends up married. The book then jumps into the future, and the pair's marriage is rocky at best. They have their up's, but lately, it has been a lot of downs. Their imperfections have become their worst enemies as Quinn can't get pregnant and is continually blaming herself so much that she is pulling away from Graham and then Graham on a lapse receives affection from elsewhere. In the couple's wardrobe is a wooden box which we learn that they are to open it when all hope has gone, and they are on the brink of the evil D - word. The characters have lots of moments to open the box, but love prevails until one night - things blow up and it's too much, and the box is cracked open. What will be in the wooden box and will it be enough for Quinn and Graham to salvage their relationship or will their imperfections and flaws be too much for them to continue with one another? I loved the idea of the wooden box, and it made me wonder whether I should broach the idea with my partner, except he's very logical and might not understand. 
I have to admit; overall this book was not as emotional and angsty as I had thought at the beginning before starting the book.
