If you only shine light on your flaws, all your perfects will dim! 

This book completely wrecked me! I said earlier in this series if a man didn't love me like Dean Holder I didn't want it well baby I stand corrected! If my man doesn't love me like Graham Wells I don't want it and to be honest some of Graham's  qualities I saw in my fiance as I read this book! I resonated with Quinn on so many levels because I suffer with infertility and for years it ate away at me.  

This book allowed me to see myself and not feel so alone on this journey. Quinn was in a vicious cycle of hope and devastation and it almost led to the destruction of her marriage but it was Graham's love and their willingness to fight for each other that pulled Quinn and Graham out of the darkness to realize it's okay to want to have a child but it's also okay to live life. 

We aren't always dealt the hand we think we deserve but it's how we persevere in the category 5 hurricanes that define us. This book hit home in many ways and at times left me in tears with all the feels. I'll say it again I love this series!

This was a quick read because it was interesting enough and simple. However, these characters are absolutely insufferable. Quinn is mopey and Graham is just annoying. Lots of whining and zero communication, sounds great for a marriage. I was rolling my eyes every few pages and ready for this book to be over so I wouldn't have to tolerate Quinn anymore.

I enjoyed the story line and relationship building throughout. Didn't enjoy Graham's
infidelity
, I felt that was unnecessary. Otherwise a quick, easy read.

All Your Perfects is a book that deals with infertility and the main characters' struggles with that. Due to this, it is a very sad book that is hard to read at times. In this book, we follow a dual timeline: one is the couple falling in love and the other is them dealing with infertility and the impact it has on their relationship. The direct comparison makes it even harder to read at times because you, as the reader, know where the couples' hopes and dreams end up.
I think this is an important topic and Colleen Hoover deals with it adequately. The ending was a bit rushed for me but other than that I have no complaints.
