As promised, here's my review of Love Walked In. It's actually a prequel to Belong to Me, though I don't remember it mentioned that way on the Belong to Me jacket. If I had, I'm sure I would have read them in order and enjoyed Belong to Me much more.In Love Walked In you meet Cornelia Brown who is romantic and looks at life and people through classic movies, such as The Philadelphia Story. A point which I, not being a movie buff, found distracting. However, midway through the book the movie references seem to fade and I found myself enjoying Cornelia's story of how she meets her young friend Clare who transforms Cornelia's world. Of course, you also meet Cornelia's friend Teo and learn how he fits into her life. Love Walks In is a tale of Cornelia's growth and self-discovery.
My recommendation is definitely read Love Walked In first before picking up Belong to Me. You'll get to know, like and understand what make Cornelia and Teo tick before venturing with them to their life in the suburbs. I think you'll enjoy what you find.
