Summary

The brand-new novel from the Sunday Times best-selling author of The Queen of Wishful Thinking - a gorgeous listen full of love, life and laughter.

Marnie Salt has made so many mistakes in her life that she fears she will never get on the right track. But when she 'meets' an old lady in a baking chatroom and begins confiding in her, little does she know how her life will change.

Arranging to see each other for lunch, Marnie finds discovers that Lilian is every bit as mad and delightful as she'd hoped - and that she owns a whole village in the Yorkshire Dales, which has been passed down through generations. And when Marnie needs a refuge after a crisis, she ups sticks and heads for Wychwell - a temporary measure, so she thinks.

But soon Marnie finds that Wychwell has claimed her as its own, and she is duty bound not to leave. Even if what she has to do makes her as unpopular as a force 12 gale in a confetti factory! But everyone has imperfections, as Marnie comes to realise, and that is not such a bad thing - after all, your flaws are perfect for the heart that is meant to love you.

The Perfectly Imperfect Woman is the heartwarming and hilarious new novel from the queen of feel-good fiction - a novel of family, secrets, love and redemption...and broken hearts mended and made all the stronger for it.

Loved it!

Had a previous Milly Johnson book from the daily deal and loved it so got this one. Loved this as well, great characters and storyline for easy listening. I did get another book by Milly as well set in Cornwall but sadly had to return it. I am sure the story would eventually have been good but I could just not get past the dreadful Cornish accents to listen to it.

Enthralling!

This is one of the best books we've ever listened to. My daughter and I have listened avidly and didn't want it to finish. A wonderful story with the paths of many twisting and turning. We would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to be ensconced in village life.

Best book I've read!!

We're to start, this book gripped me from the first page, it was amazing. Such a, brilliant story with so many twists to it, it keeps you guessing throughout the whole book. 100% recommend. Desperate for a new milly Johnson one to come out.

Brilliant. loved it all the way through

this book was gripping from the start. you felt like you knew them and had been to the village.
my only criticism was that the ending was a little rushed but it was a very enjoyable read.
