Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A delicious experience, full of grace, charm, and humor
Review: Betsy and Joe finally come together . . . and even then things don't always go smoothly! Full of tendeness and humor. Deep Valley at its best.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Betsy and Joe or Betsy and Tony??
Review: Did you know I'd never read this book as a child? Yes, this was the only Betsy book my library didn't carry. So, since I seem to be rediscovering books from my childhood, I requested this one and dug right into it.

I'd been waiting ever since the introduction of Joe for Betsy and Joe to finally hook up. And they do! (Of course, we knew Maud Hart Lovelace wouldn't keep us hanging like that.) The Deep Valley world is perfect but still very real; all the characters come alive and you love them like your own family and friends.

I'm on a quest for the Betsy-Tacy High School books, but really, who designed these paperback covers?

Summary: A great book for people of any age
Review: i am a 14 year old from chicogo and i got really into all of the betsy-tacy books. i read them all three times. i'm not kidding, they were that good. i think that maud hart lovelace has created a series of masterpieces that are perfect for any girl who loves to laugh, and even cry, over a good book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A wonderful, descriptive story of a young couple
Review: I have read and loved every book of Maud Hart Lovelace's Betsy-Tacy series. But this book stands apart as a wonderful touching story. Betsy, at a small town high school, has always liked and been fascinated by Joe Willard, a proud orphan boy who is as talented a writer as she. Though they have their ups and downs, Betsy and Joe end up together in the end, like any good romantic story, and figure out they loved each other all the time. It just takes a wonderful story for them to find their love, which blossoms in the literary style and wonderful description of this enchanting story.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A pleasant book
Review: I liked (and still like) this book. Actually, I love it! This book is definitely one of the better from the series. I was glad that Betsy and Joe went together, and the "fight" between them made the book even more interesting. But although I loved this book, it has it's faults.
Joe's feeling for Betsy could have been more gradual. And I like the idea of Tony being sweet on Betsy, however his departing was so abrupt, and it didn't matter to much to Betsy after a while. The last thing that made me cringe, was the idea of Tacy having her marriage planned, already! That was sickening.
However, these books are based on Maud's life, and that means they will not be an absolute fairy tale.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I love the Betsy-Tacy series!
Review: My mother read the Betsy-Tacy series to me as a child and i've read them myself over and over again. Although I'm now in college I still enjoy them every time. I recomend this series to everyone! There's something about Betsy that just holds you to the books.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I wish I was there!!
Review: These stories make me wish I had lived in those periods. Although I have a strong feeling my life would be different. I love the Betsy series and I can't wait to share them with my own children.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: "Betsy and Joe"
Review: This book is fluffy light reading but has good morals to it

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Betsy and Joe or Betsy and Tony??
Review: This book is very, very good! It wasn't my favorite in the series, though, because Tony and Betsy didn't go together so he ran away and became an actor before graduating from high school.
In the last chapter of the book, "After Commencement Day, What?" Joe tells Betsy that he had made a plan for life and that past fall he wasn't ready to take Betsy into the Plan. But now, after he thought it over, Joe wanted to be with Betsy and Betsy wanted to be with him.
It was a good book and I recommend reading it.
