Becoming Us by Robin Jones Gunn

Here is the book summary:

From the author of the best-selling Christy Miller and Sisterchicks series comes a refreshing novel that celebrates the gift of friendship.

Five young women, including beloved Gunn characters Christy Miller and Sierra Jensen, gather for a simple Christmas party and soon become unlikely best friends. Told from the viewpoint of Emily, a timid young mom going through a difficult season of life, the regular gatherings provide the much needed community she's longed for. As the women begin sharing their life stories in Becoming Us they are endeared to each other and find ways to challenge, encourage, and help each other become the nurturing mothers they wished they'd had when they were growing up. They see themselves as Haven Makers and unite to be remembered for what they do and not for what was done to them.

And now, my review:

Becoming Us by Robin Jones Gunn was a lovely story about relationships.  There are hurts and hang-ups and life navigating trails in this one.  To be introduced into each of the women’s life and why they are the way they are is a real picture of people around us every day.  Hurt people hurt people and forgiveness is so healing and important.  Seeing the real enemy and not switching into self-preservation mode.  Sometimes I laughed and sometimes I cried.  Should she move or should she stay, all emotions were wrapped up in this read.  I look forward to the next book in this series with the anticipation of where it will take me. 



I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
