Book 20: Betsy and the Great World, 365pp
I enjoyed this one more than the last for two reasons: firstly, there was a nice rehash of recent events at the beginning to clear up what was going on with each character. Secondly, it was quite a travelogue, which I liked. It was a little odd on the basis of being really only Betsy, with not much interaction with previously important characters. But I liked it.
I think it could have used a little more meat to it, though. She seemed to skim through all the adventures pretty quickly. Granted, it's meant for a younger audience, and Betsy is not a worldly-wise girl, so it's very squeaky-clean. I'm not like saying that I wish her to NOT be squeaky-clean. It just could have done with some more details.
I think I'll go to the library for a bit and maybe stop by Jan's Books or the antique store and browse.
