Book Review: An Imperfect Wife by Grace Wen

Reviewer: Terry

an imperfect wifeI was giving a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

An Imperfect Wife is a Novella about one of the biggest issues in a marriage…..How to keep your marriage going even through extreme changes and hard bumps. The main character finds herself in that very common situation of feeling isolated and alone, and very abandoned by her husband. She ends up turning to her husband’s boss because he gives her that amazing attention she is really seeking from her own husband. I love and hate this story. I love it, because I can truly relate-I have felt what she feels and I can recognize how easy it would be to do the wrong thing for the right kind of attention-I hate it for the same reason…..

However, in saying all that. The book was written very well. You truly do sympathize with this young wife who up and moved to a new place with no outside support and you watch as she begs her husband to help her adjust. I won’t spoil how the book ends…but I do actually like the ending very much. Alll in all this was a great read and it was very easy to attach to the character’s in the story.
