"Io ce l'ho un sogno da realizzare" disse lentamente. "Continuo a sognarlo, anche se spesso ho pensato che fosse impossibile farlo diventare realtà. Sogno una casa con un caminetto, un gatto e un cane, che risuona dei passi di tutti i nostri amici e... dove ci sia tu!"
Anna avrebbe voluto dire qualcosa, ma non trovava le parole. La felicità l'aveva travolta come un fiume in piena. Faceva quasi paura.
"Due anni fa ti ho chiesto una cosa, Anna, Se oggi ti facessi quella stessa domanda, mi daresti una risposta diversa?"

My review for
This is another audio book which I love it. In this 3rd book Anne and a few college friends rent a house together instead of boarding at someone's house.
They find a place not far from their college so it works out for them.
Everyone is being courted in this book and finding adult life kind of hard.

When Anne goes home for a visit she see's some of her childhood friends but realize lots has change over the year away at school. A dear friend passes away. And Diana is getting married.

I think Anne really struggles with herself a lot in this book. With trying to become a writer and holding on to friendships. Anne and Gilbert end up getting distant again. Because Anne doesn't feel the same way about him as he does her. She ends up being courted by a rich young man whom she feels she is in love with.

Anne's friends are happy for her, however some are holding out for Gilbert. When there is a rumor going around that Gilbert is engaged to another female, Anne doesn't want to admit she is jealous. She compares herself to the female.

Anne's take on everything I think gets in the way of her finding out she does belong with Gilbert.
Looking forward to reading the rest of the series to see what else Anne gets herself into and if she marries Gilbert.
I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Post Hypnotic Press. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it.
