Book Review of Rilla of Ingleside

Rilla of Ingleside

What a wonderful way to close the series by focusing on the Blythe family fully (been a while since they did so) and showing how each of them handles the news of WWI. Rilla (Bertha Marilla Blythe) is the youngest born to the Blythes and is nearly 15. She is so much of a child still and wants to be seen as a woman. However, the war might make a woman out of her and change her more than she realizes, as well as her family as a whole. This was a darling book. It was probably my second favorite book of the series (the first being the most favorite).
