Anne of Green Gables & Anne of Avonlea by L.M. Montgomery
4.0
You know when there's been a book in your childhood that you want everyone in your life to read because this is the book that you internalised so much that once you re-read it when your older you actually realise you don't know how much of your personality is your own and how much is a fictional character's?
There's something about Anne Shirley, her ideas and her personality that makes her a modern character even years after the novel was written.
L.M Montgomery wrote Anne with ample enough imagination and romantic idealism. She is a character that is timeless, relatable and engaging, in the beginning, her numerous mistakes and her tendency to have her head in the clouds was literally everything to me as a child who was often daydreaming so often during school that I never really had any idea what my teachers were talking about half of the time.
Something I love about Anne is the value she places on friendship. Her friendship with Diana is one of the most iconic friendships in literature, and the reason is because of how much they love one another, that even trancends romantic relationships.
With an amazing supporting cast, heartwrenching, funny and wholesome moments, Anne of Green Gables is a series that will forever have a place in my heart as one of my favourite books of all time.
