Betsy is coming home from her visit around the Great World (her father sent her to Europe in the hopes it would help expand her horizons and train her as a writer). All she can think about is Joe. And there he is, cane in hand, hair so blonde it's almost silver, meeting her at the boat. This Betsy-Tacy novel is both heartwarming and heartbreaking. In many ways Joe is the perfect husband. Adoring, ambitious, kind. But in other ways married life is not easy. Joe gets into dark moods. And when heA great end to a beloved series!
This book is a triumphant finale to Miss Lovelace's series on Betsy (and Tacy and Tib). From the beginning when Betsy and Joe meet at the dock to the very end with its sweet valedictory to Hill Street, the book is a perfect whole. Betsy at last finds a reality that grounds her affectionate and enthusiastic nature.

Settling near the Rays in Minneapolis (of course!), once they are married, Betsy
Sigh. Betsy and Joe will from now on definitely feature in my list of favourite fictional characters. They are the best.
I can never decide which of the Betsy-Tacy books are my favorite. I think that's because I love them all (especially the ones from her highschool years on) equally. They are all so sweet and perfect and I love them. But Betsy's Wedding has a special place in my heart.Why? Well, y'know. Betsy and Joe are (big spoilers ...) married in this one. They are adorable. Like, they must be the cutest couple ever! They get along so well, and even when they disagree, they manage to get through it together.
I love this book every time I read it!
