Unpopular view here: I found it saccharine, dull, and predictable by turns. Turned me off completing the series.

I found myself going all sentimental and misty eyed over this. What a lovely childhood the children have in this book..

3.5, rounding down. This book connected with me more now in my current life situation than it would have if I'd read it years ago, I've no doubt of that. And there were many things about this book that I loved (including Dan). But overall it was just an "okay" experience for me. No regrets about reading it, and I enjoyed it. I definitely still plan to read Jo's Boys.
