I just want Anne and Gilbert to get married! DX
That being said, this was a fun book. Most of it was in letters from Anne to Gilbert, so the format change was a little unexpected because there are occassional chapters that are traditional narratives. But while waiting for Gilbert to finish medical school, Anne takes a job as a high school principal, and in traditional Anne fashion finds herself in hijinks not included to a feud with the most prominent family in town before she even arrives and matchmaking, but also charming everyone she meets.
