As they struggle to move on from their past and the damage they’ve caused, new problems begin to surface.

Now, that vow will push every boundary they have left.

In order to survive, they’ll need to completely trust each other.
But can they?
Last time they did, things went terribly wrong…
This time, it might be worse.
If there’s one thing that’s certain, their secrets are too big to let anyone walk away alive.


My Thoughts

I am obsessed with this series. 

What an ending!!! Normally when you read a sequel very often you find that the story gets boring but not this one. 


On to Part Three is all I can say.
 

Book Review: All Your Perfects by Colleen Hoover




About

Colleen Hoover delivers a tour de force novel about a troubled marriage and the one old forgotten promise that might be able to save it.

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. This is a heartbreaking page-turner that asks: Can a resounding love with a perfect beginning survive a lifetime between two imperfect people?


My Thoughts

This is my fifth time reading Colleen Hoover. Again you fall in love with a couple which in this case is Graham and Quinn. Theirs was a chance meeting that soon turned into a deep love and a marriage.

The story is interesting because it speaks to love in the face of challenges. This couple is suffering from infertility and it caused turmoil and sadness in their marriage.

The beauty about the story is the realness of it, since many couples go through these problems and sometimes do not survive the storm. Graham and Quinn represents so many people out there so while it is a love story it is also a story of hope and survival.

While this is not my favourite book by Colleen Hoover it is a decent read.
