I struggled with this book. However, I believe its totally due to being in a reading slump. I get that way often with series reads. Before I continue on in the series, I'm going to pick up another book. For now, this one was just "okay"!

But I'll have to ask you to wait a long time, Anne, said Gilbert sadly. It will be three years before I'll finish my medical course. And even then there will be no diamond sunbursts and marble halls.

Anne laughed.

I don't want sunbursts and marble halls. I just want YOU. You see I'm quite as shameless as Phil about it. Sunbursts and marble halls may be all very well, but there is more 'scope for imagination' without them. And as for the waiting, that doesn't matter. We'll just be happy, waiting and working for each other—and dreaming. Oh, dreams will be very sweet now.
