The Imperfectionists is another successful novel-in-short stories, this one set at the headquarters of an international English-language newspaper based in Rome. The setting itself provides more than enough fodder for the series of dynamic, character-driven, compelling stories that populate the novel--from the powerful family that owns the paper to the editors, reporters, and even readers who keep it going--in good times and bad--over the decades. Rachman pulls these vastly different stories together by interweaving them with blurbs that describe the history of the paper, from its earliest conception in the 1950s up until more recent years. Thus, the arch of the novel transcends the individual characters to tell the story of the rise and fall of a modern newspaper over the course of five tumultuous decades. Everything begins and ends at the newspaper headquarters on Corso Vittorio, and the details that Rachman uses to bring the newsroom to life--from the evolving technology to the stained rug--tell its story quite vividly. Rome becomes a romantic, gritty backdrop to the drama, politics, and personal successes and failures of the individual characters, but never upstages them. It is the quirky and eccentric characters, in fact, that compel the reader to move quickly from story to story, wondering which of the background characters from previous stories will take center stage in the next one, and what secrets of his or her love life, professional life, or innermost fears and desires will be revealed.

The concept of Hereafter had me interested from the very first time that I read a synopsis and Tara Hudson's perfect execution of this book is what makes it such a good read! I love ghost stories, so the whole ghost-human-romance thing is so up my ally and one of the many reason why I really enjoyed this book! One thing that I did notice about this book was that it didn't have as big of a cast of characters as a lot of other books (in fact, I would probably say that it had a rather small cast of characters). But it's quality over quantity, right? And I can definitely say that I really enjoyed reading about pretty much all of the characters in Hereafter. Our main character Amelia has a pretty lonely life (or death, if you will) at the beginning of the book, but that all changes of course when she meet Joshua. One of the main things that I found interesting about Amelia was the fact that she didn't remember how she died and I really loved discovering just exactly what happened to her when she died and what her life was like while she was still alive. I also felt like Amelia was an easy character for me to connect with, which is something that I'm always looking for in a book. I think that she made similar decisions to the ones that I would have made, although I must say that I don't think we would have chosen the same boy! Both of the love interests in Hereafter were swoon worthy, yet very different from one another. On one hand we have Joshua who is pretty much the golden boy. He's such a sweetheart; so kind, caring, gentle and loving. He is really accepting of all of the impossible things going on in his life (such as falling for a ghost girl) and he is also willing to fight for and protect the girl he loves. Now, on the other hand we have Eli, who is our rockstar/ghost bad boy. He carries with him an air of menace and danger, but I feel like he uses that as a cover to hide his loneliness. What I liked about Eli was that he had more depth to him then first meets the eye. Did I mention that he's a bad boy? Call me biased, but the bad boy is always my number one pick! The plot of Hereafter was great! As I said before, I was really interested in this book from the first time I read the summary. There is just something about the idea of this book that I find very intriguing! From the very beginning I couldn't put this book down and I zoomed through it so fast, always wanting to flip the page and read more! The fact that Tara Hudson's writing was awesome; smooth and easy to read, probably contributed to my fast reading of this book as well! All in all, this book was great! Fabulous story and plot, interesting characters, hot boys and awesome writing. I would definitely recommend picking this one up if you haven't already! I can't wait to read the sequel and see where Amelia's story goes. I really look forward to reading more from Tara Hudson in the future!
