Anne feels very relatable to someone in their 20s, watching all those around her experience milestones that she isn't. But why did everyone and everything die in this one?

Anne is off to college in this book. She makes new friends, gets into fewer hijinks than in her childhood, but still manages to get herself into trouble here and there. At this point I'm kind of only reading for her romance with Gilbert, who has been her frenemy since day one.

Unfortunately despite the fact he proposes the first time halfway through the book, this turns somewhat into Pride and Prejudice where they both believe the other is courting someone else and the book ends on his accepted proposal.

My quest continues on!
