oh i love anne so much. i‘m so attached to the characters, they will always have a special place in my heart.
i read the book after watching the tv show (anne with an e) several times so i was already in love with anne before reading the book. i‘m definitely curious to find out what happens with her in the next ones!!
even though i will probably never be able to fully relate to her, her romantic nature, imagination and joy for the small things in life make me want to cry (in a good way)

very heartbroken about matthew’s death as he was such an important character for anne and her development

i definitely found a lot of comfort in this book but can’t ignore the fat shaming and racism
