 CW/TW: Death of a parental figure
Age Rating: 10+

- Anne was so cute
- I loved Anne's friendship with Diana. She wasn't jealous of her, and that was refreshing.
- Anne's character development was amazing
- The plot was fairly slow. Every chapter was its own little story.
- Matthew's dead destroyed me

I'm an Anne Shirley stan now.  She's extremely dramatic and frank and is the peak example of someone who romanticizes everything in their life, and I love her. My feelings about her character are exactly like Marilla Cuthbert's - Anne should be annoying to me, but instead she's endearing and I feel almost motherly towards her. Every time Marilla admits to herself that she loves Anne, my heart flips. 🥺 I loved the descriptions of nature, I wish I could actually visit Green Gables. Oh, and Gilbert's obvious crush on Anne was so cute! I can't wait to start Anne of Avonlea, but I'm also dreading the eventual end of this series. I want to lie in the grass and listen to Karen Savage's narration forever. 😆 I thought she read too quickly at first, but I got used to it and now her voices for Anne and the rest of the cast are cemented in my mind.
