lovely once again!!!!! the descriptions of domestic life were so incredibly beautiful and wholesome. i love Anne’s family. and i loved the part about Anne being insecure for a short time, was nice that she wasn’t perfectly happy all the time (and that she was happy again after that). makes her more relatable

There is a huge gap in between this one and the previous in the series which I at first didn’t like but now I can see why the author chose to do this so that she can focus on the young lives of Anne’s children who are so silly and sweet

If you thought Anne got into mischief as a child, wait until you read about her children. This book is a wild romp full of love, laughter, and heart.

After all of the not so good reviews, I didn't really have high hopes for this book. And I'm so glad I didn't because I enjoyed it so much! It definitely wasn't perfect and it isn't the best book in the series but I still really liked it.
Many people complain about Anne not really being in this book and that's kinda true. Like I read in some other review, she just sometimes appears, gives some motherly advice to her children and then leaves again. I would like her to be a bigger part of the story and I agree with the fact that Anne's jealousy was completely over the top and off. That definitely wasn't the Anne we knew.
But I have to admit I liked those stories of Anne and Gilbert's children. It reminded me a bit of the first book Anne of Green Gables even though it was really different. I really liked Rilla with the cake and I wish there would be more of her but now it made me kinda excited for the last book in the series which is all about Rilla. I also wished there would be some story from Shirley's point of view because we don't know anything about him.
I still wish there would be more of Diana and Gilbert because they kinda hardly appear in it and they seem like completely different people. But overall, I kinda liked it and I'm glad I didn't have such high hopes.
