Anne of Ingleside by L.M. Montgomery

2.0

---

I'm sad to say that I'm done with this series. Where has Anne gone? I wanted her to evolve into a badass feminist who stopped stereotyping and was progressive, not someone who gave up on her dreams to become a housewife. I was also enraged in the first chapter by the negativity surrounding Diana's weight (who weighs the same as me) and how this made me feel. Each sequel has let me down and I wish I had stopped after book one because it is truly the only treasure in the series. Many of the subsequent books lack any sort of direction or plot and are just ramblings of old people going on and on and on and on about nothing and being bitchy. V. sad.
