I really love this book but the end really saddened me. It felt so rush and it felt kind of forced in such a way for things to have a bit more of a tragic end to the story. I loves the adventure prose of the story as well as the such loveable characters. I enjoyed the character development too. The book overall felt so cozy and heartwarming. It was just the end that got to me too much and caused me to bump it down a star.

A classic tale of an orphaned girl who is adopted by a couple of unmarried siblings. Through a mixup, Matthew and Marilla wind up with Anne, a spunky 11 year old girl, and not the capable farm boy they had requested. But Anne's cheerful attitude and bright imagination wins over not only her new family, but the whole community. It's a charming book, but it is dated in its attitudes and does quite a bit of moralizing. But Anne gets into quite a few scrapes that make her feel more realistic than the average 20th century heroine.
