So, I decided that a book that feels like an old friend after twenty years deserves five stars.Īnne Shirley must be one of the most delightful characters ever written, largely because she is far from perfect. Reading about Anne's appreciation for life's loveliness made me appreciate my daughters and long to live more in-the-moment myself. Anne was even more delightful than I recalled, since I now have daughters who share her "scope for imagination," her penchant for large words and her zest for life. In spite of the amount of time that has elapsed, I clearly recall reading the last book in the series very slowly and thinking to myself, "I will be so sad to not be able to read about Anne anymore." When I picked up this book a few days ago to re-read it, I found within a few chapters that it was like seeing an old friend. I've read the Anne of Green Gables series once before - over twenty years ago.
I don't often give books five stars and as I neared the end of this book, I gave some thought to how many stars this book deserved.
