Pretending to Dance by Diane Chamberlain
5.0

This is a story about a young girl, Molly, who grows up harboring many painful secrets. The book's framework involves the protagonist's reflection of her childhood. Gradually as characters are introduced and developed, the reader becomes involved with Molly's wonderful father who suffers from MS, her mother Nora, and other family members who live on Morrison Ridge, NC.
The novel centers around Molly and her husband Aiden wanting to adopt a child with an open adoption. The flashbacks tell the story of why Molly feels ambivalent about the adoption process and all that it entails.
The characters were believable, likable, and vulnerable. A great read!
