Lucy Maud Montgomery

De Marque · Narrated by Karen Savage

About this audiobook

The Blythe children are almost grown up, except for pretty, high-spirited Rilla, who is almost 15. She can't think any further ahead than going to her very first dance at the Four Winds lighthouse and getting her first kiss from handsome Kenneth Ford. No one can resist her bright hazel eyes and dazzling smile. But undreamed-of challenges await the irrepressible Rilla when the world of Ingleside becomes endangered by a far-off war. Her brothers go off to fight, and Rilla brings home an orphaned newborn in a soup tureen. She is swept into a drama that tests her courage and leaves her changed forever.

Ratings and reviews

Great ending to the series but I ugly cried through the whole thing. There is something off about this recording though. There are volume fluctuations and minor background sounds. But for a $0.99 purchase I can deal with it.

This is a well written book with an usual plot but I felt that the characters were mostly sociopaths. I am more interested in kinder adventures!
