No chapters of this series feel longer than the chapters with Aunt Mary Maria and I struggle to forgive the book for that, but Walter makes up for it.

A childhood classic that I listened to on audiobook. I love seeing Anne as a mother and hearing the children's thoughts and feelings. I recall loving this book more in my youth than I do now though.

dommage que Anne ne soit plus qu'un personnage secondaire. Aussi certaines aventures des enfants sont geniales, d'autres sont ennuyantes à mon goût. Mais le dernier chapitre est vraiment beau à lire, hate de lire Rilla d'Ingleside!!!

Anne of Green Gables, the bold, funny girl with a strong character, is gone forever. Now she is a secondary character in her own book.
“Anne of Ingleside” is not about Anne. It is about her six children instead, and each of them has their own spotlight story:
▪️ Jem deals with the loss of a pet.
▪️ Walter is convinced by an older boy that his mother is dying.
▪️ Nan is deceived by a lying friend into thinking she was switched at birth.
▪️ Di is burned by trusting the wrong girls with her friendship.
▪️ Rilla somehow gets the idea that it is shameful to be seen carrying a cake, so she sinks it in a brook.
▪️ Shirley is... underrepresented.
Anne's only role in this book is to be the perfect mother who comforts her children after their adventures. It is very sad for me that such a funny, imaginative, curious, and brave character – who was also the first woman in Avonlea to get higher education and become a school headmaster – is now just a blurred spot in the background.
I only have two books left, so I will continue the series, but it’s disheartening to see what is happening to Anne 🙁

Another visit to the world of Anne Shirley and her family in PEI, Canada, in a more innocent time. It was a balm to my soul in this hectic, politically polarized time. In Anne of Ingleside, Anne is grown and a mother to several children, but she is still inspiring and has not lost her ability to see the good, even as she approached midlife. Looking forward to completing this series with the next two books.
