Where We Belong by Emily Giffin.

I've read all Emily Giffin's books so was excited to read this one too.

Like all her books before, this is another heartwarming story with two really strong main characters.  Each character takes turns telling a chapter from their point of view which I really enjoyed, and found easy to follow despite it sounding a little confusing.

I found the relationship between Marian and Kirby very interesting. Adoption is not something I have any experience of and so understanding the feelings of the all the characters involved in this story was fascinating. Despite not having any experience to draw upon I really understood each characters viewpoint and felt I could identify with each of them.

This was a really warm and uplifting book, full of strong characters and very believe-able relationships.  All I can say is that I hope Emily Giffin keeps on writing, so my collection can keep on expanding.

Heart Of The Matter by Emily Giffin.

As a fan of Emily Giffin books I was hoping this one would be as good as my favourite, Something Borrowed' and I'm glad to say I wasn't disappointed.

This is a story of three people and how their lives intertwine.  In essence quite a simple book, there are no big elaborate plots to keep track of and no long list of characters to keep up with, but I loved the detail, and finding out how one simple act can affect people in very different ways.

I felt for each of the characters, and could identify in part with the perspective offered by each one.

This was a page turner of a book, and I couldn't put it down. I cried my way through the ending but enjoyed the book immensely.

Love The One You're With by Emily Giffin.

I'm a big Emily Giffin fan, having loved her first three books (Something Borrowed, Something Blue, Baby Proof).  This, Emily's fourth book, isn't up there with the others I don't think, but as ever it was a lovely read.


I love the way the story deals with issues such as infidelity and marriage in a way which everyone can relate to even if you haven't been there yourself.  I can totally understand the decisions made by characters and I was looking forward to finding out how the story ended.


The characters were very easy to like, and there was even an overlap with some characters from previous books.


Next, Heart of the Matter...
