Product Description:
The third and final volume of Lucy Maud Montgomery’s celebrated Emily trilogy, Emily’s Quest is a vigorously drawn study of a woman coming to terms with love and her own ambition. In no other novel did Montgomery explore more fully the beauty, complexity, and wonder of love. In every detail, this mature novel, by one of the world’s best-loved authors, captures the drama and confusion of a young life on the brink.
Along with Emily of New Moon and Emily Climbs, Emily’s Quest is an honest and poignant portrait of a singular woman.

Cora Alyce Seaman has written a book that I will pass on to my family. She has written a historical account of the Pittsburgh region that I have lived in all of my life and she is very accurate! It is one of those books that you can't sit down for a moment. She captures you immediately with the births of a set of twins and you must know every detail of this story. I look forward to reading more of this author's books!

Rating: - This book is amazing!
I have read this book more times than I can count. My mom bought the series for me when I was about 8. I read them then and didn't think much of them. I picked them up nearly ten years later after a particularly bad week, I completely fell in love with them. The book ends happily (who wants to read a book that ends the wrong way?), but deals with life in a much more realistic manner than the Anne books do. I've never seen depression captured more accurately than in some of Emily's journal entries. She's ... Read More
