 100% the best one out of the kids' POV books. feel like it was written by a ghost writer? anyways i just didn't feel like reading this month LOL maybe it was because of the book, idrk 

Gereğinden fazla uzun bir yolculuğun sonuna geldim. Anne yan karaktere dönüştükten sonra hiçbir ana karakterden keyif alamadım ve bu kitapta yazarın koyu milletçiliğiyle birleşen savaşın gölgesi kitabı beğenmemi zorlaştırdı. Sanırım yazar kitabı yazdığı dönemde birçok dile çevrilebileceğini hiç düşünmemiş. Savaş karşıtlığını kınayacak kadar kızmış olması beni güldürdü. Anne'i tüm kalbimle özleyeceğim ve ilk kitaplardaki bazı karakterleri ama diğer karakterler pek umrumda değil. Belki Walter umrumda olabilir o da sadece bir süreliğine nazik bir ruha sahip olmuş olmasından ötürü.

One of my reading goals for this year was to re-read all 8 books in the "Anne of Green Gables," series. I really enjoyed re-reading them all, especially "Rilla of Ingleside."

Since the last couple of books have been a bit disappointing, I wasn’t expecting too much of this one. As such, I was delighted to find that this is possibly my second-favourite of all the Anne books (following only the original). I don’t think I ever expected to read a war novel when I fell in love with Anne a decade ago, but here I finally am. I cried as I came to the end (mostly because of dear Dog Monday) and felt so much for these wonderful characters! As a Canadian woman, this felt almost personal and was an incredible insight to the home front of World War I in Canada.
lighthearted relaxing sad

I'm sorry, LMA fans, but for gosh sake Walter already.

laughed and cried all throughout the book. has none of the same tone and content as the original, but retains all of it's heart and charm. enjoyed it so much more than I expected

The war has arrive and some of the local boy are signing up to fight. Rilla, the youngest of the Blythe children is now a young woman of 15 who is wanting the typical teenage things like parties, fun, and to flirt with boys. Instead she is worried about her brothers, her potential beau, and the impact the war is having on the people at home. I ended up shedding tears quite a bit and it was usually because of that dog. Every single time he made an appearance it just killed me. Really enjoyed learning about how involved the people left behind were in following the progress of the war.
