This Is Where You Belong: The Art and Science of Loving the Place You Live by Melody Warnick
4.0
I picked this up given that I am uprooting after 25+ years in the Boston area, to split my time between Maine and somewhere South (haven't decided yet) in the winter. I really liked the structure, Warnick's "Love Where You Live" experiments, and her checklists at the end of each chapter. My only quibble is that several chapters "went on" a little too long - too much quoting of experts, or polls, etc.
In addition, the assumption is that you are moving to a place (or live already in a place, and feel disconnected) that is either an urban or suburban situation. Where most of my time will be spent in a rural environment where the town itself is teeny tiny, I have to take a more regional approach. But her assumption is valid for most people who pick this book up!
