I much enjoyed this book over the previous installment of this series. There's so much romantic drama, there's a cozy little house that she shares with her friends, there's her first sale for her writing, what more can you want!
Anne and Gilbert's entanglement (perhaps we should say their drawing apart and coming back together) has been an enduring part of why people love these books so much, and it's not hard to see why. Their "decoy" love interests are a necessary part of the realization, that euphoric moment where their true desires become clarified.
Overall, this installment had a more centered plot throughline which made it much more enjoyable, next to no Davy (thank goodness), and the culmination of the Anne/Gilbert plotline from the first three books.
