I love this. I love this. I love this.
This has easily become one of my favorite classiscs.
The charcters were so livid and real. I definitly could picture couple Josie Pyes in my life. Matthew and Marilla were both so well-written I am still shocked they are not real. Marilla’s strong stubborn demeanor and affection she develops for Anne is unbelivable. Diana is truly a masterpiece of a friend, and It is great to know that they had a concept of soulamates in the 1900s as well. The setting of the story could not be more beautiful. From Haunted Woods to Lover’s Lane, Avolnea and Green Gables is forever in my heart. The flowers and the brook and the breze and the pink skies and frozen winterlands had painted the most beautiful scenery in the world.
Anne’s charcter is unbelivably unique and gentle. I have never read about a person who had so much to say, to see, to live, and to dream. The growth of her manners and personality has truly reflected the growth I felt as a teenager. From crying about my hair to messing up recipies, Anne has represented us all. She is truly one of a kind. I don’t think I’ve ever wished for a chracter to be real as much. The plot was all Anne. As it says” SHE IS THE BOOK.” There is no doubt in that. To flourish with her on the journey of life has been a real wonder. I can not wait for more books to hear about her next adventures!

This is a fun, youthful classic about the titular orphan girl Anne who gets accidentally adopted by an older pair of siblings from the rural Green Gables. She's bright, energetic, and very talkative and the book is all about how her whirlwind of a presence brings light and joy to the lives of her new parents and everyone around her. Although it loosely follows a plot of her learning to fit in with others in her new life at school, it's mostly character-driven and focuses on her relationships and experiences. It was an easy read and although cute at points, overall not a very memorable or touching one for me.

This series was a childhood favourite of mine and I'm glad I revisited it. It is a beautiful and inspiring story about a smart little girl who's slowly becoming a young woman. Anne of Green Gables contains a strong female friendship, desire for knowledge, beautiful nature and lots of love towards people and life of any form.
The ending is heartbreakingly beautiful. After about twenty years (since my dad first read it to me) I still love this little girl, but my favourite charecter will forever will be Matthew, who - now I rralize - is surprisingly similar to my own father.
