Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Cornelia Brown, heroine of de los Santos's bestselling Love Walked In, returns in a gracefully written if formulaic sophomore effort. Cornelia and her husband, Teo, move to suburban Philadelphia, where she finds it difficult to fit into the sorority-like atmosphere. Despite a bevy of domestic dramas (planning a family among them), Cornelia's first-person chapters are the quietest of the three points of view. Seemingly shallow and vicious, neighbor Piper shows her kinder side as she struggles through her best friend's fight against cancer. Though the extreme of Piper's two-facedness isn't convincing, her moments of sincerity invite genuine empathy. Cornelia also yields narrative time to Dev, a precocious teenager whose father is missing and whose mother develops a friendship with Cornelia. Dev's connection to the story is initially unclear, though he does grow close to Clare, a troubled teenager with an unconventional connection to Cornelia, and a late-breaking development grounds his role more firmly. Though each story line is a good read on its own, they don't always braid nicely, and while the predictable plot wanders into sappiness, the prose is polished and the suburban travails are familiar enough that fans of the women's fiction and higher-brow mommy lit will relate.

From AudioFile

Cornelia Brown and her husband, Teo, introduced in LOVE WALKS IN, move to the suburbs to find a more relaxed lifestyle and start a family. As they settle in, they make friends, take the pettiness of others in stride, and stumble into the middle of important secrets, one of the biggest of which has Teo at the center. Julia Gibson is an easygoing storyteller who gives the impression of describing events in which she has had a direct part. She is sensitive to the emotion of the characters without overstating it. Her presentation of dialogue and her transition to narrative passages are smooth and well paced.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best books I've read, May 23 2008

By	NurseB (Nepean, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Belong To Me Intl (Paperback)

This was by far the best book that I have read in a long time. I've never heard of this writer before and bought this book on a whim. I was so glad that I did. This book tells the story of Cornelia Brown who moves to the suburbs with her good looking doctor husband. They moved to a "Desperate Housewives" kind of neighbourhood, complete with a perfect mom/wife. However, as the story goes along we realized there is so much more to her life. The book weaves together three separate lives and we soon discover 3/4 through the book how they are all connected. I cannot even do this book justice. A great read from start to finish. I couldn't put it down and definitely recommend to anyone looking for a "can't-put-it-down" read.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Summer Read, Aug 5 2008

By	Summer Reader (Calgary, AB, Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Belong To Me (Hardcover)

This book was really great in my opinion. I liked almost everything about it. As one of the other reviewers mentioned, this book is a sequel, which I did not know and I haven't read the first book. Regardless, Belong to Me was the perfect book for me to read curled up on my patio (in suberbia) enjoying lovely summer nights. I recommend it as a good book with a great story, but not many moments of page turning suspense. Slightly predictable, but still a great read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wordy but wonderfully moving, Jul 19 2009

By	Zea L. Wulf "Loves a good read" (British Columbia, Canada) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The first few pages didn't grab me right away, but as I kept reading the more I couldn't stop. I was completely drawn into this story, the characters, the description of each detail within their lives left me imagining these characters as people I have met. People I know!
I found myself reading on furiously yet not wanting it to end at the same time.
Wonderful novel! So glad to have stumbled across it.
