| Summary | "Happy House" by Jane Abbott is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Anne Leavitt, who recently graduated from college and is faced with the prospect of a significant change in her life. As she grapples with the bittersweet feelings of leaving her friends behind, fortune unexpectedly arrives in the form of a letter from a great-aunt she's barely heard of, inviting her to visit her ancestral home, Happy House, on North Hero Island. This invitation sets off a journey filled with family legacies, secrets, and the challenges of identity. The opening of the novel establishes a poignant farewell among three young women as they prepare for their futures post-graduation. Anne, Claire, and Nancy reminisce about their college days and express a mix of anxiety and excitement about the paths ahead. A letter addressed to Anne from her great-aunt surprises the trio, revealing that Anne's visit to North Hero could become more than just a trip; it may involve inheriting a family fortune. As Nancy decides to impersonate Anne and undertake the trip in her stead, the narrative hints at the complexities of relationships, the weight of heritage, and the impact of decisions that shape our identities. The story promises a blend of adventure and introspection as Nancy navigates her new role within a family she hardly knows, set against the backdrop of a historically rich and mysterious home.
