Review:
Okay so there's a lot I want to say, but I also can't spoil the book for you... but let me tell you that it was so emotional! Like my heart was feeling literally everything!
When you're reading All Your Perfects, you go back and forth in time and get to understand more of where Quinn and Graham started, all the way to where they are now and how it got them there in the first place. Personally, I feel like this book can be totally relatable to anyone in a relationship. I feel like it opens up the topic for couples and people to realize that communication is SO IMPORTANT and that the more you let things stew, the worse it can get, and ultimately become all consuming and destroy everything you have.
"My husbands heart is my saving grace, but his physical touch has become my enemy."
And then of course there's always a little bit of a twist to shake things up! When that came, I swear it was like the end of the world was coming... for Quinn at least. I could feel like it was going to happen, but when it did, somehow I was still completely shocked!
I felt like I was living inside the novel, like a fly on the wall but feeling every single thing that Quinn was feeling. It was truly and utterly pure, emotional and filled with heartache and heart melting moments. It was like having to lose almost everything is the exact wake-up call you need to save it all.
"If you only shine light on your flaws, all your perfects will dim."
This quote seriously says everything! Whether it has to do with relationships or just yourself as a person, and honestly something that I should probably think about myself more than anything. If you're so focused on the flaws in your life, everything else that's truly amazing and perfect will dim and fade away, you won't realize how amazing it is.
Can I take a second to talk about the letters?! That's only a minor spoiler there, but UGHH!! That was just so beautiful, I may or may not have cried a bit... okay maybe a lot. But reading those letters felt so real, I was just in awe of it all. It was such a tear jerker! The amount of emotion poured into those letters was so powerful, I just can't even!Overall this was a great book! It played into a lot of things, but for one, I just found that Quinn was so much into her head, I couldn't stand it at times. It was like she didn't want to let anyone or anything into her life that could pull her out of this funk that she was in, and as much as I was rooting for certain things to happen, I also just wanted to get to the end, it was a back and forth game that was slowing down for me. I absolutely loved it, but there were moments with Quinn that I didn't love...
That's all for my review, I hope you enjoyed it, and honestly go put it in your TBR because it's definitely a roller coaster ride!
So until the next time, Keep Reading!!
Your Graduated Bookworm! :)
