Anne of Green Gables is a heartwarming, timeless classic that feels like a cozy autumn afternoon wrapped in words. The story of Anne Shirley, an imaginative and spirited orphan taken in by the Cuthberts, is brimming with charm, wit, and life lessons that resonate across all ages.
Anne’s mishaps and heartfelt moments bring a smile to your face, and her optimistic outlook reminds us of the joy found in the everyday. L.M. Montgomery’s vivid descriptions of Prince Edward Island makes the setting come to life.
This book is perfect for those seeking a feel-good read filled with warmth and gentle humor. It’s not just about Anne’s adventures but also about the beauty of finding your place in the world and cherishing the people who become your family. While I thoroughly enjoyed this read, I couldn’t help but wish I had discovered it when I was younger—the lessons about kindness, resilience, and embracing one’s true self are things that would have made an even greater impact during childhood.
Whether you’re revisiting an old favorite or discovering it for the first time, Anne of Green Gables is a story that reminds you to see the world with wonder, just as Anne does.

Anne is such a delightful and charming character. She's talkative, imaginative, lovable, vain and bad tempered (when provoked), but her personality and way of seeing the world is unique. She's childlike, but also wise beyond her years. I love her character growth. No matter how much she evolves, she's still Anne with an 'e'.
The rest of the characters are fantastic and they cannot escape Anne's charm, no matter how hard they try. Marilla might seem stern and strict, but she has an interesting sense of humour. Matthew is Anne's biggest supporter. Mrs. Rachel Lynde is the epitome of cosy island, nosy neighbour vibes. There's also Anne's friends, frenemies, acquaintances and rivals.
This is a character driven and slice of life story with low to no risks and well-intended mistakes which are easily resolved. There's no doubt about how the story is going to go, but I loved witnessing Avonlea through Anne's eyes.
Comforting, heartwarming and beautifully written. Anne is one of those characters who sees beauty in the mundane and that's the best way to describe Anne of Green Gables: ordinary and enchanting.

This is one of my favourite books that I return to time and again. There is something joyful within the story - a love letter to the world and all its simple pleasures. Every read, something new stands out to me from the pages. Some new nugget of wisdom needed in the moment to carry with me along the way.

I always avoided reading this book a child, and I’m so mad at myself for it. Anne is so loveable and such a kindred spirit. I wish I could have had her to relate to when I was younger. I cried reading this.
