The book switches between a classic third person narrative and lengthy letters written to Gilbert from Anne. It's about as close to the other books abundance of dialogue Anne could offer, given the distance.
This book explored many different people's personalities and developments. It showed off such a variety of interactions and relationships that Anne met and built. While the other character might have much louder personalities, this book allowed Anne to find and strengthen her footing in regards to her values and outlook. Sometimes she changed the other person for the better, sometimes not. She was almost universally loved, but I don't think that she is anywhere near a Mary Sue or a surface level, uncomplex, character.
I like that they explored and encouraged Anne's perspective and behavior. This book has a lot of value to offer in how you live your life, especially for the developing audience, but the older, more set in their ways, readers could definitely connect with the people around Anne.
There are so many little plots, that you really do have to veiw the entire book as a character study. All of the stories are valuable and adds to the through line, but that throughline comes down to what I've already mentioned, not as much down to a succinct plot.
