This is where I have to leave Betsy and her friends. I read the first four books as a kid. I reread those and finished the series as a grown up.

I want Betsy to be as she was--independent, smart, not afraid to show the world her intelligence, fun. I

In general, I don't enjoy books written in the past few decades. The publishing industry in America is garbage. To get a book deal, one's work must be "pitchable" as such--when X happens to Y, she must Z in order to learn Q. To make the made up (as a ...more
