jules1994 's review for:
Anne's House of Dreams
by L.M. Montgomery
3.0 Stars.
Another audiobook I enjoyed while working in a New Zealand backpackers. I once again really adored the new characters we got to meet (and dearly missed some of the previous books!), but the stories and snippets of Anne’s life we got to read about (or in my case listen to) were not all too captivating. Especially the huge time jumps throughout the book really irked me somehow. Also, lots of the themes and topics of the books begin to get really repetitive - there is always a complicated love story that turns out good in the end, always the death of a loved one. And I just don’t enjoy grownup wife and mother Anne as I enjoyed young, adventurous, spirited Anne. So, I guess all books from this point on are probably less likely to entertain me. Still cherish Anne of Green Gables above all!
