Kelly Johnson begins to find herself in the dentist’s chair, and from there, her life changes will form. She uses a lot of Post-it notes, placed strategically everywhere in her home and in her car, which she has named Doug.

Her husband Patrick is her best friend, and he proves to be very supportive as she begins to change her life that summer, while her two sons, David and Sean, are at summer camp.

All around her, life is changing. Her friend Kathryn drops off her anorexic teen daughter Melanie, hoping for the help she herself cannot provide, while she is finding herself in Montana.

Another friend, Charlotte, who is a realtor, persuades Kelly to help stage a home she has on the market…and from that point on, Kelly is swept up into a new business of her own. Staging turns into an exciting venture, even as she is caught up in the chaos of her friends’ marriages.

Here, Home, Hope: Women's Fiction took off slowly for me, but from the moment that Kelly began planning for her home staging career, I was drawn in and very intrigued.

I enjoyed the characters, each of whom felt real to me, from the self-absorbed Charlotte and her new love Bruce, to the sulky teen Melanie, who started to grow on me after a while. Her mother Kathryn was absent for most of the story, but when she reappeared, she seemed like a “new person.” Even the dog Oreo felt like a real “person.” I could definitely picture the annoying Rachel White, whom I dubbed Queen of Negativity…and the suburban community that featured each of the characters and homes. I liked Kelly’s narrative voice, a self-deprecatory tone that slowly changed to a more optimistic one. A fun read, earning 4 stars from me.

I choose the book because of its title. The book was an easy read. The author made the characters come alive.
.
What a nice break from my usual book club reading list...an escape into easy reading with a tad of motivational uplifting. I thought the characters a bit exaggerated as though in a stage play.I happen to love plays and this read was the perfect interlude during a hectic holiday season. It was also a great reminder to nurture those relationships I value most especially my husband, children and close girlfriends. It also reminded me they do not come in perfect packages and will sometimes disappoint.
Another great book by this author. I loved the story and the characters who were women that were so easy to identify with as they were seeking to find what life has next for them. It is a fun read that had me laughing out loud at times and I certainly recommend it.
I expected a light, quick read, but was soon caught up in the heart-wrenching struggles of this novel's characters. I could hardly put it down, as the pacing was perfect. The characters were all well-developed, and I ended up empathizing a bit with even my least favorite characters by the book's end. Best of all, when the book was over I truly felt inspired to make some changes in my life, to follow the main character's example. This is the perfect read for when you're "stuck in a rut" and I'm creating a whole new category in my library for it Motivational books )
Loved Kelly's journey and the interaction with her friends. Her husband was wonderful! She's reached that point in life where she knows she's happy with her hubby and kids, but something is missing. She finds out it's her! It was great to watch this character rediscover herself with the unwavering support of her husband.

I nearly cheered at the end of this story. The message is one that women need to read and hear more often support each other and the choices we each have to make regarding working outside the home full-time, staying at home full-time with our children, or a hybrid model. And let's not forget many women don't even have the option of making that choice.

The idea that there is only one right way to be a mother causes women far too much needless anxiety. Love your children when you're with them. That's the best thing you can do.
After reading Kaira's book "In the Mirror" and really enjoying it , I decided when offered the opportunity to read the other books by Kaira Rouda as I discovered that her books fill me with a joy and remind me of the author Rachel Hauck and Sara Evans. In Here, Home, Hope we meet Kelly who is in her last year before the big 4-0 and has discovered her life is filled with restlessness and she knows she has to do something, anything otherwise she is bound to go stark crazy and do something she regrets. The story starts with her at the dentist and then on her way home . As she's coming home , she sees that her next door neighbour Heidi has up and left her family and her friend Charlotte is selling the house. The scene then cuts to Charlotte and Kelly enjoying some drinks when they are interrupted by Kathryn who comes to Kelly in tears and Charlotte departs. Readers discover that Kathryn's marriage is falling apart and her daughter has an eating disorder. Kelly being the ever-helping friend and since her boys are away at camp offers for Kathryn's daughter Melanie to stay with her and Patrick. So Kelly's new project begins in helping Kathryn's daughter. Though it seems that life in Kelly's neck of the woods isn't all cherry and that her marriage and life compared to others is solid and stable as we learn Charlotte's and Kathryn's lives are about to become very tangled with one another and Kelly will be left on the sidelines trying to decide what is right and wrong , and what her next move shall be. One thing that I really did like in this novel though was despite what was happening around and in Kelly's life and mindset, she still stayed faithful to her husband and they still had a strong marriage.
This book would definitely fall under the category of family saga and women's fiction rather than Chick Lit.
