I got so emotional near the end of this book. When I originally read this book in middle school, it was one of my least favorite of the series, but now I’d say it is one of my favorites. And I honestly think that is because my situation in life continues to change. When I was younger, I loved the first few books the most, but now that I’m older, I’ve related to the later books even more and that’s beautiful. I loved reading Anne’s letters to Gilbert; I myself was in a long distance relationship until last year for three years, so I related to that part of Anne and Gilbert’s relationship. And then I also related to Anne’s journey of independence and growth in Summerside. I’ve always wondered if I’d have the same favorite in this series if I ever reread it, but I’m starting to think my favorite may definitely change.
