LOVED this! Characters were so developed...they felt like they were sitting right next to you. One drawback was that sometimes she tried to get you to know them too well. ( )
I think this book will be percolating in my head for a long time. Belong To Me is beautifully written, and is one of the best approaches I've seen to a multi-perspective story. Especially in the early chapters, de los Santos gives such keenly insightful glimpses into how women relate to each other and see themselves, and how guardedly they dip their toes into trust and friendship that it's almost uncomfortable to read. In the end, though, her reflections on family and love and the sometimes serendipitous-seeming miracle of how people come to belong to us (and vice versa) were very moving. Also, it's just a great story! ( )

My fall from suburban grace, or more accurately, my failure to achieve the merest molehill of suburban grace from which to fall, began with a dinner party and a perfectly innocent, modestly clever, and only faintly quirky remark about Armand Assante.
