Review by: BALLARD MATTINGLY on Nov. 17, 2010 : (no rating)
This book was well written and easy to follow. It addressed many issues with style and a bit of imagination. My only problem with the book is I cannot relate. I am a 30 year old man with a 13 year marriage and two young children, because of this I don't believe the book was written with me in mind. I believe this book is better suited for women who may hate the central character but will be able to relate.

Review by: Tanja Haack on Nov. 06, 2010 :
The Perfect Lover is a well written book. It follows one woman's search for happiness. In her search for happiness, Roya created relationships with people to try to figure out what was missing in her life. She did this without the thought of coneqences. I often found myself wanting to smack her, because of her selfishness. Despite not liking the main character, Roya, I found myself sucked into the story. I couldn't put the book down; I had to know if Roya found her happiness and at what cost. Roya may not have been likable, but she had personality and that is sign of a well written book.
