50. Belong to Me


I loved this book. It took me a little while to get into it, there are three separate but interwoven storylines going on, but in the end I absolutely loved it and definitely recommend it.


It's a sorta sequel to Love Walked In, a book I read and loved in late 2006. You don't need to have read that to get this one, but it too was wonderful so I'd recommend reading it as well.

Anyway, here's the description of Belong to Me from B&N:

Everyone has secrets. Some we keep to protect ourselves, others to protect those we love.

A devoted city dweller, Cornelia Brown surprised herself when she was gripped by the sudden desire to head for an idyllic suburb. Though she knows she's made the right move, she approaches her new life with trepidation and struggles to forge friendships. Cornelia's mettle is quickly tested by judgmental neighbor Piper Truitt, the embodiment of everything Cornelia feared she would find in suburbia. A saving grace soon appears in the form of Lake, and Cornelia develops an instant bond with this warm yet elusive woman.

As their individual stories unfold, the women become entangled in a web of trust, betrayal, love and loss that challenges them in ways they never imagined, and that ultimately teaches them what it means for one human being to belong to another.
