Emma, Vol. 10FIRST SENTENCE:
[For Volume 9] "Here, Theo." 
[For Volume 10] "Emma!!" 

SUMMARY:
[For Volume 9] Catch a glimpse into the lives of Emma's employers, the Meredith family. Join youngest son Erich Meredith on a traumatic journey to find his lost pet squirrel. Learn how Mr. and Mrs. Meredith met and find out the secret of their ongoing happiness. Discover how the friendship between William and Hakim began! And then meet three new characters who are entangled in a love triangle.

[For Volume 10] It's the event everyone has been waiting for - the wedding of Emma and William Jones. Class distinctions have made their formal union almost impossible, but true love has finally overcome society's barriers. Of course, not everyone is happy about this turn of events. What roadblocks will be thrown in the way of this star crossed couple?

THOUGHTS: And we have reached the end of the story. It was pretty and enjoyable the whole way. When large series like this conclude, I usually feel a sense of loss and longing. I normally wish the story went on. This time... not so much. The Emma series was a fun (and pretty) diversion, but nothing entirely special.

RATING: 6/10 [Good]
