A review by ellianamaselli
Anne of Avonlea by L.M. Montgomery

3.0

This really is a great book. It’s warm and cozy and feels like a sweet spring day. With that said, this book was only as interesting as it was because I listened to it on audio, and I was already invested in the characters.

Had this been my first jump into Green Gables, I would have surely DNF’d. Because it was more of an along-for-the-ride, transitional book. Or at least, that’s how it felt to me.

However, despite feeling pretty much ”meh” throughout the entire book, I was surprised to find that by the end, I was deeply intrigued in these characters and their stories. I even got incredibly happy during the final few scenes. I was just thrilled that my characters were happy.

So while it’s not as good as the first one, it’s pretty great. And I would highly recommend carrying on with the series. I know I will. ;)
