Although the novel takes place in beautiful PEI the atmosphere is not as sweet as in the former stories: The First World War begins and the Blythe familiy is involved like hundred thousands other Canadian families. Jem, Walter and Shirley leave Canada for war. The girls and Anne and Gilbert stay and their hearts are broken. During the four years of war the fourteen year old Rilla, spoiled and pretty vain, changes - life is not shallow and golden any more, but bitter and heartbreaking.
"Rilla" is an exciting and sentimental book - a pageturner. You really want to know what will happen next, if the brothers return and so on. Unfortunaly - sometimes the Blythe familiy is a too perfect to be true (and a little bit arrogant, I think). They are perfect patriots and take all challenges brave and high-headed. That is why I can't give five stars. But nevertheless there is still some ironic passages and these I love most: Rilla who has to beg pardon (even she hates the stupid and mean person) and she lispes when Ken, her Sir Galahad asks her to marry. This reminds me of my sweet old Anne of Green Gables, her clumsiness and her humour and her spirit!
