***** ALL CREDITS TO L.M.MONTGOMERY**** The eighth (and final) book in the 'Anne' series "Before this war is over,' [Walter] said - or something said through his lips - 'every man and woman and child in Canada will feel it - you, Mary, will feel it - feel it to your heart's core. [...] It will be years before the dance of death is over - years, Mary. And in those years millions of hearts will break." Rilla is a young girl when World War I breaks out. At first she doesn't realize what this means for herself, her family, Canada and all of the world. But the heartbreaking truth is soon evident to vain and easy going Rilla, and the ensuing four years change her life forever. Tragedy, love, and humor are mixed in one heart wrenching book, all by Montgomery's amazing style. GOODREADS RATED THIS 4.14 STARS.
