Anne of Green Gables
by L.M. Montgomery
I have a long history with this book. I read it many times as a child and, going through as many abridged versions in my elementary school classroom to try to see which chapters would be included. Now that I'm older, I decided to read the full thing and I'm glad I did.
There were some chapters I remembered, some I had forgotten, and some that I had never read in the first place. But overall, this is a very heart-warming and wholesome slice-of-life novel about an orphan girl who found a family and a home. The ending was incredibly mature and I'm glad that Montgomery didn't sugarcoat the details of it. Of course, there were a few lines here and there that didn't age well, namely the whole Prissy Andrews/Mr. Phillips relationship, but they weren't as prominent as other books I've read from this time period.
I am incredibly interested in reading the rest of the books in this universe as well as the popular "Anne with an 'E'" TV show.
