The Imperfects: A Novel

The Imperfects is a story filled with mystery, lost diamonds, and the importance of what family means in the grand scheme of things. Whether it be good or bad, the characters in this story all have one thing in common: they aren’t perfect. The Millers are estranged when the story starts up. That is, until Helen, a mother and grandmother, suddenly dies. Therein starts a moving tale of a secret family inheritance that could make or break an already broken family. I enjoyed this one a lot. Meyerson writes wonderfully flawed characters that are relatable in so many ways, although there were times that I felt like they were way too stubborn for their own good. The ending was perfect and not too over the top. Readers looking for a family drama that has mystery and history thrown in, look no further. There are many individuals and different storylines that help bring a better understanding of the way the characters tick, why they do what they do. It was great seeing how everything came together in the end. I look forward to reading more from the author; she writes engaging and interesting books that fill me with wonder.
