I didn't even know that a "sequel" to Daddy-Long-Legs existed until I stumbled onto this book, and so I was very excited to read it. Jean borrowed most of the plot for Dear Enemy from another beloved book, however - Jane Eyre. There were so many similarities that I don't think it could possibly be mere coincidence, except that Jane and Mr. Rochester were infinitely more likable than the pair in this book. Dear Enemy gets three stars in my opinion, which is why I rated the combined book with four stars.

Daddy-Long-Legs is a quick, charming read with an absolutely delightful main character/narrator. I love the epistolary style of the book, and the illustrations add an extra level of whimsy. It has, for me, consistent reread potential.
Dear Enemy is harder to get into, even though it is written in essentially the same style. I missed Judy's voice and character. (
