In this book Anne goes to Summerside where she is a teacher at a girl's school. The three years covered in this book are the final days before Anne's marriage to Gilbert. She encounters the infamous Pringles and wins them over by proving herself to them all.

The book is written in a different style compared to the previous Anne stories. The plot is conveyed through a series of letters written to Gilbert with regular narration peppered in between. I found this style to be confusing, choppy, and wondered why L. M. Montgomery chose to write the book this way?

Living up to the Anne stories, many new characters are introduced including Rebecca Dew, Dusty Miller, and Elizabeth Grayson who seeks to live in Tomorrow and where she can be away from Grandmother and the Woman.
