A review by saguaros
The Story Girl by L.M. Montgomery

2.0

Something a bit charming in the concept and setup of it—tweens and teens, relations and friends spending the summer together, playing games, telling stories, getting into very mild trouble. There’s definitely a glow of childhood summer about it. But it’s incredibly fucking dull. Just, boring. And way too religious. Half of the stories must be about them figuring out religion, praying for the wrong things, etc in the way that children do. Also one of them is chubby and they won’t stop calling him fat and it’s annoying. But mostly it’s just dull.
