So Happy

If you have read my post 'So sad', then that's very good, but if you haven't, I suggest reading it before you read this one. I finished 'An Old-Fashioned Girl' last night and was SO happy with the beautiful ending, that it made up for the sadness of finishing the book. I've read this story before, of course, but I forgot how beautifully written the ending is. I will not say what happens, in case my readers ever decide to read this lovely story, which suggest they do. It's a romance, so if you're not into that kind of thing, don't read it. The book was published in 1869 and it's very funny to read what the height of the fashion was way back then. It's so impossible for me to think that this book was written around the same time as the Little house books, by Laura Ingalls Wilder, because one book (An Old-Fashioned Girl) took place in New England, while the other books (Little house) took place in the west. Granted, An Old-Fashioned Girl was written around the time that Laura Ingalls Wilder was born, which is earlyer then the actuall Little House books take place, because Laura was born in 1867, so she was only two years old when Louisa came out with An Old-Fashioned Girl, and of course none of the Little House books took place when Laura was 2. - Well, I'll bet your wondering why I never finish a paragraph on this blog, and just make it all one long one. It's because for some reason or another, the template does not include new paragraphs where I've put them while writting the posts. Instead, I'm just gonna use little dashes, like this: - Gotta run, -Lucie
