Borrowed Things takes place in North Carolina, alternating between Durham and Pearl, a fading town on the Lockwood Folly River. It traces a year in the separate yet symbiotic lives of five characters whose paths cross and ultimately connect.
Wishing to reinvent herself, Anne Gray sells her Durham home and the care of a Great Blue Heron to Noah Levinson, who also negotiates for the temporary use of her things and their stories in the desperate hope they will infuse some of Anne’s spirit and resilience into his ailing wife, Elizabeth.
Anne finds a new home in the forgotten town of Pearl where she releases the memories of two failed marriages as she sails the waters of the Intracoastal Waterway with a haunted Latino priest and an elderly woman who rides a bicycle and wears No Fear t-shirts. Through Anne’s not-so-divine intervention, Father Paul and old Marjorie unveil their long held secrets, and come face to face with the embodiment of their abandoned hope.
Anne is finally forced to come to terms with her past and find the courage to accept or reject the opportunity for a last and lasting love.

Borrowed Things edition by Doris Schneider Tia Silverthorne Bach Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
Reading Borrowed Things was like finding a new friend and getting to know her. Anne Gray, the main character, is stronger than she realizes. She is a woman of strong passions, a sense of humor, courage, honor and grit. She is a true southern lady, with a preference for black pearls who is not afraid to get a little dirt on her hands.
Anne has made mistakes that have left her vulnerable and afraid but determined. After two failed marriages, Anne sells her home and stories to the CEO of the publishing that once rejected her book, in a last chance effort to give his dying wife a reason to live.
Anne finds her way back to herself in her new home on the coast with the help of these unlikely friends a handsome Hispanic priest, a lonely eccentric widow and the vulnerable CEO.
What can memories shared with strangers do? Heal. The very thing that she believes is her weakness becomes her greatest strength and asset—Love.
This book is about healing— broken hearts and wounded spirits. It is about bringing families, friends and communities together. It is a love story in every sense of the word, for it’s the meaning of love that is revealed on these pages.
Borrowed Things is a beautiful story of the silliness and softness, of what it is to be a woman.
I laughed, I cried, I wanted to read more. I am waiting for the next book which should be out soon.
Enjoyed the treatment of contemporary life and issues for late middle aged women in the US. Author shows good sensitivity.
This is a book I'm considering recommending to my book club to read. It had situations and people worth thinking and talking about.
Elementary teachers rarely take the opportunity to simply sit down, enjoy a few moments of "me" time, and read a novel during the school year. I'm so glad I did. Thank you, Doris Schneider, for sharing your beautiful story. I loved it.
Looking forward to reading more from this very talented author.
Wonderful and inspiring
The reader feels a personal connection with the characters in this book and is left feeling a sense of loss as the book ends. Along with this, there is a little murder mystery happening. I absolutely loved this book.
"Borrowed Things" sites itself in my own backyard, so-to-speak, and that helped my rating. Characters, setting, even some plot elements reflect my own (so probably many folks') experiences which is the first criteria for a multi-star rating. You can read the synopsis for the book description, but know this I like soap operas for the same reasons. This book is a soap opera in a very readable, cogent and compelling format.
