Rilla of Ingleside by L.M. Montgomery
5.0
What I read: Rilla of Ingelside by Lucy Maud Montgomery
Why I picked it up: I’ve been working my way through re-reading this series on audio this year and finally finished!
How I read it: On audio at 1.75x speed this week.
What it’s about: Rilla, one of the younger girls in the Blythe family is the main character of this book – it walks through her adopting a war baby, seeing her brothers go to the front in WWI, and catching up on all of our old friends with Anne and Gilbert and Susan
What I liked: I loved going back to see all of our old friends – and really walking through Anne’s story from the first moment she came to Green Gables to being a grown, married woman with adult children.
What I disliked: There were a lot of letters and diary entries, it might have been better on paper, but was still a delight. This is the only one of the series that wasn’t a re-read for me.
Genre: Young adult, historical fiction.
Rating & Recommendation: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ and absolutely, it’s best read as part of the series though – if read as a stand alone, you might miss a lot of the extra character adventures.
