Betsy and Joe by Maud Hart Lovelace
5.0
Betsy and Joe have my heart. I’m talking Anne and Gilbert level obsessed. Words fail me when I attempt to explain why.
The last few pages of this novel, where Joe and Betsy discuss their future, left me absolutely captivated. In its simplicity, I found it to be one of the most romantic scenes I've ever read.
There's nothing quite like a slow burn romance that spans across multiple books (in this case, four) between characters who feel so familiar to the reader. It's like watching two old friends, whom you've always known were destined for each other, finally figure it out. For me, this kind of story is the ultimate reward in reading.
