winterpromise31 's review for:

Anne of Avonlea by L.M. Montgomery
4.0

2021 - This was a fantastic year to binge-read the entire Anne series. There's something comforting about Anne and her adventures. This year's favorite quote - "Living so that you beautify your name, even if it wasn't beautiful to begin with... making it stand in people's thoughts for something so lovely and pleasant that they never think of it by itself" (192).

2019 - This series truly is a classic. Each time I read it, I glean something new. This year's favorite quote - "Well, I should like to see you go to college, Anne; but if you never do, don't be discontented about it. We make our own lives wherever we are, after all... college can only help us to do it more easily. They are broad or narrow according to what we put into them, not what we get out. Life is rich and full here... everywhere... if we can only learn how to open our whole hearts to its richness and fulness" (131).

2016 - Still love this book! It makes me feel so warm inside, like I want to make some peach tea and hand quilt on the couch.
