No matter how old I get, part of me will always be Betsy Ray. Another part will always be Anne of Green Gables, but that's another series for another time. Every few years I go back and revisit old friends, and every time I can't quite believe that these books were written almost 75 years ago. Fashions change, distractions change, sexual mores certainly change how cute to read about existential angst over Mar 31, Emi Knape rated it it was ok. Ok so I definitely didn't know there was like a fan base for this series and I'm pretty sure I am the only person on here giving this book a rating less than 5 stars. Here's the thing: I did not know this was like part of a whole series However, for the Betsy series or whatever it's called , I just found it plain boring. He was so flat. Y'all always bring gifts back for the family when you go on trips I guess I just didn't really get into these stories and was more focused on counting the page numbers than developing a fictional obsession with Joe Willard Jul 31, Lisa rated it it was amazing. These books take me to another time and I love it. The main character was born 2 years before my paternal grandmother and 10 years before my maternal grandmother, so I love to get a glimpse into what the world was like for them. How did I never read these growing up? I wonder if my mom ever read them? There are some phrases and terms the characters use that I know my mom said, too. I've had to look up many of the fads and foods and cultural references to know what they were talking about. But th These books take me to another time and I love it. But that has been fun for me! These books are so charming. Jun 20, Colette Stine rated it it was amazing Shelves: children-s-books , classics. I read prolifically as a child but never even knew Betsy and gang existed! They say better late than never, and for me, with this series, it holds true I was absolutely enchanted and fell completely in love with Betsy and Tacy in the first book, and likewise with each book of the series. Going back in time in such a sweet way is truly a pleasure, and the exploits of the Ray girls and their friends provoke smiles and a little heartache in the sad parts. Like Narnia, Anne, and Little House, this is a I read prolifically as a child but never even knew Betsy and gang existed! Like Narnia, Anne, and Little House, this is a children's series that adult can read with pleasure, and I heartily recommend it. Jan 17, Emock rated it it was amazing. Betsy Was a Junior I loved the progression of Betsy as she's moving into adulthood and changing from "childish things" and shifting her focus and confidence. Her dreams haven't changed, but her relationships and choices have taken on a more serious attitude. Reading these stories is like meeting the coming-of-age Laura, Anne, and Jo all over again. What a treasure to discover these special books. They are warm and have a familial essence. They are surprisingly modern, for an era set a century ago Betsy Was a Junior I loved the progression of Betsy as she's moving into adulthood and changing from "childish things" and shifting her focus and confidence. They are surprisingly modern, for an era set a century ago. I only wish "the crowd" could come to my house for Sunday dinner. Jun 22, Katie Fitzgerald rated it it was amazing Shelves: level-young-adult , genre-historical-fiction , blogged , Thus the Okto Deltas are born. While Betsy, Tacy, and Tib, who has recently returned to Deep Valley from Milwaukee, are initially thrilled by their exclusive organization, as time passes by, they realize their cliqueishness is driving away many other potential friends and ruining their reputations within their class. The wonderful thing about this entire series is that Betsy is always good-hearted, but never perfect. She makes the kind of mistakes in both academic and social situations that plague the lives of real girls, regardless of when and where they live. Gang aft agley. No one forces Betsy to make good choices; rather she learns her lessons and makes things right simply because she knows it is the right thing to do. Also refreshing is the fact that Betsy is portrayed as a smart girl, but not a great student. She leaves projects - such as her herbarium - to the last minute, fails to win a spot in the essay contest, and generally seems to prefer socializing above all academic endeavors. I think many girls can relate to her desire to spend time with her peers, as well as to the end-of-year panic that sets in when a major assignment is not completed. I have grown weary of YA novels with mature sexual content, and this book is the refreshing polar opposite of books of that nature. In Betsy and Joe, Betsy is now a high school senior, and at long last, she and Joe overcome the various obstacles that have kept them apart and begin to pursue a relationship. Like most of the other titles of the series, this book makes me nostalgic for a time period I have never lived in. I actually found myself even worrying a bit over how empty the house will seem to Margaret if Betsy also goes away from home which I imagine she does, given the title of the next book, Betsy and the Great World. Betsy and Joe would make such a great graduation present, as it really causes the reader to stop and think about the end of high school and what is to come next. Betsy and Joe are also great role models when it comes to dating. They show a great deal of respect for themselves and each other, and a kiss is a major, serious event in their relationship, rather than something taken for granted.

At first I didn't like these as much as the first few books, but these are incredible!! I love the characters and the imagery of the parties and dances.

This year I've gained music lessons, and all the things Miss Fowler taught me about writing, and a postal card from Joe. She thought about those lists she had made in her programs for self- improvement. She hadn't followed them out by any means, but they had revealed her ideals. She wasn't even sure she liked it. But it happened, and then it was irrevocable. There was nothing you could do about it except to try to see that you grew up into the kind of human being you wanted to be. Feb 21, Kellyn Roth rated it it was amazing Shelves: romance-general , classical-reads , books-for-teens. This book is so hilarious, maybe more so than the other Betsy-Tacy stories. Okay, maybe it's not funny for Betsy She seems to forget a lot of the hard-learned lessons from the last couple years. She gets into all kinds of trouble. Most of the time it doesn't end too disastrously even if she does have to stay up all night pressing flowers , but sometimes it leads her to almost lose friends, such as with the Okto Deltas. She seems only focused on fun this year Also, it's just so good to see Tib again! The trio just isn't a trio without her. And just because there are only two of them then Maud's superb writing always gives me new ideas to sort over. With this re-read, I mostly focused on the theme of transitions and growing up.

I didn't like the sororities, but they were a big part of Betsy growing up, and a necessary part of the plot. Oct 22, Carmen Maloy rated it it was amazing Recommends it for: Everyone. Betsy Was a Junior is perhaps the most fun-filled book of the entire Betsy-Tacy series. It opens with Tib's return from Milwaukee, which is met with joy and happiness by Betsy and Tacy. Three strong once again, the girls busy themselves with attending dances, performing in school recitals, and, of course, hanging out with their Crowd. Prompted by older sister Julia's rhapsodic descriptions of sorority life, Betsy decides to follow suit by creating a high school sorority called Okto Delta. Although the eight members have a terrific time throwing parties and eating delicious refreshments I defy anyone to read MHL's books without getting up and going the refrigerator just once! Realizing that she and her sistren are alienating other members of Deep Valley High School particularly Tony , Betsy dissolves the group and reverts back to her gregarious self. Tib provides an extra dash of glamour to this book, what with her "blonde, stunning looks" and "lilac-trimmed dresses" that contrast fascinatingly with her practical, independent personality. One suspects that even Irma the Siren felt some competition once Ms. Muller joined the ranks of Deep Valley High School. The Betsy-Tacy books were highly autobiographical and Lovelace perfectly captures the innocence and magic of childhood. If you read this book and love it, please read the series. It will be books that you will never forget as long as you live. I also recommend the "Betsy-Tacy Companion" which is an amazing book that disects each book and compares it to it's real-life counterparts, including pictures of the "real" Betsy, Tacy, Tib and all the gang. It was incredible to step back in time and enter Betsy's world. We toured the city and I was actually able to step foot in "Tacy's" bedroom and sit on the famous bench at the top of the big hill. It was truly a life- altering experience. I have to thank my sister, Julie for introducting these books to me and changing my life. It's obvious how much these books mean to me. My first born child was named Tacy Kelly Maloy. Please read and enjoy. They are a treasure! Jan 25, Jennifer Margulis rated it liked it.

The bad news is that Betsy cares more about her hair style and stylish clothes than she does about being a good person, taking care of her family, or doing her schoolwork. After Julia comes home for a visit and reports that several sororities want her to join and the sisters at university are wooing her hard, Betsy comes up with the idea to start a sorority at Deep Valley High School. It seems like a brilliant idea but ends up leaving a lot of people out, creating a lot of hard feelings, and estranging her from her good friend Tony. Betsy is having a lot of fun being a junior in high school, flitting from party to party, but that's the problem. Fun seems to be the only thing she cares about. Betsy doesn't even care that Joe Willard does not notice her. She's so busy being frivolous and self-centered that she even neglects her little sister Margaret in what is the most heartbreaking chapter in the book. She's not a very likable character in this book and the long descriptions of her dresses, hair styles, and parties get a little tiresome. This is probably my least favorite Betsy-Tacy book so far. I was relieved that at the end of the book Betsy takes a critical look at her own behavior, realizing that growing up should not be only about having fun. But it feels like a little too little a little too late Aug 12, Jan rated it it was amazing Shelves: thebelovedtomes. Betsy makes many wrong choices and suffers the consequences. I find it very instructive without being preachy. Two life lessons that it teaches are: 1. Often seemingly simple fun and frivolous pasttimes can have very negative effects in our lives. Living for yourself and the pleasure in a moment, instead of thinking of others and endeavoring to serve and please them, often leaves one with guilt, emptiness, regrets or all three. Sep 01, Pamela Hubbard rated it really liked it Shelves: young-adult , historical-fiction , character-doorway , relationships. I don't know what it is about these books that just draws me in! Maybe it's the fact that Lovelace has created such a deep, yet relatable character in Betsy that I find myself remembering certain things from my high school experience even though mine and Betsy's were a century apart. Lovelace just brings out those timeless qualities of life. Betsy enters her junior year and continues setting goals for herself, learning from her mistakes and finding out who she is. For the first time, the end of I don't know what it is about these books that just draws me in! For the first time, the end of this book had a bit of suspense so I'm excited to start on the next one! Rereading these books for a challenge. How much do I love these stories? Well, I named my daughter Betsy, so that may make it clear. These are clean, growing-up novels at their best because the characters aren't perfect, but very real. They have problems and heart aches and let themselves and those they care about down, except for the times when they act nobly and do the right thing - just like real people. I loved these growing up, my daughter loved them, and we still enjoy revisiting Deep Vall Rereading these books for a challenge.

The sorority monopolizes and dictates her junior year for better and for worse. Other highlights include Julia leaving home to attend the University of Minnesota. Betsy and Joe - Wikipedia

As someone with an interest in human rights, and an awareness of the ubiquity of their violation, I'm not sure I always believe in that goodness. As someone moreover, with few happy high school memories - yes, dissatisfaction with the high school experience seems to have become such a commomplace, that its expression feels almost redundant, but as with everything, there are degrees. I am, after all, a high school dropout - there is little in Betsy's school experience with which I can identify. And yet Lovelace makes me believe in the goodness of humanity. She makes me feel with Betsy, makes me see how easy it is, without ever intending it, to fall into the wrong way. Given who I am, that is an astonishing achievement. View all 3 comments.
