I loved following the adventures of the bubbly and loveable Anne and her growing up in Green Gabels. She is very young when the book starts but it ends with her going to college, so a lot happens in the first book. She overcomes a lot of obstacles of her time. I would say this book is ahead of its time and a very enjoyable read.

My first classic since childhood, this was creative, well written and imaginative. There was a LOT of dialogue which was a bit too much at times but it was overall enjoyable. 

Anne Shirley is such a loveable character and her and Manilas growth together is adorable.  Definitely a great entry way classic if you can handle the excessive amount of dialogue.
