5.0 out of 5 stars A great book!!!!, July 26, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Anne of Avonlea (Anne of Green Gables Novels) (Mass Market Paperback)

I've re-read this book (along with the whole series) about 6 times, and I still find it so good it's hard to leave it until I finish it. Lucy Maud created a character that catches your heart strings and won't let go! (Well, I fell in love with Gilbert Blythe, but that doesn't matter)I also reccomend other books by Lucy M. Montgomery featuring Anne as well as others like Emily of New Moon, Kilmeny of the Orchard, and SPECIALLY, A TANGLED WEB. See if you can stop reading them once you have started!!! I asure you that you'll spend hours of enjoyment with them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Anne of Ingleside, February 24, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Anne of Ingleside (Anne of Green Gables, No. 6) (Paperback)

I really liked this book. I enjoyed reading about Anne as a grown woman with children. Her children are really just like her. Their imaginations carry them on some very enjoyable adventures. I think that if you enjoyed the first few books in this series, you'd definately like this one too. To anyone who hasn't read the series yet, start them now. They are all very good books.

This review is from: Anne of Avonlea (Anne of Green Gables Novels) (Mass Market Paperback)

Without a doubt this classic piece of work shaped my life in various ways. I cannot emphasize how positive Anne Shirley is as a character. She is a heroine who is not only beautiful(spirit) but extremely intelligent. The most drastically different aspect of the novel is the fact that the romantic male character, Gilbert, gestures to the idea that "being smart is better than being pretty". How often spoken or written are those words? I believe that phrase is something young girls must recognize as well as understand in life. For beauty is fleeting and knowledge is eternal. Timeless and pure, I suggest this novel for anyone who loves a bit of comedy, romance,intrigue, and pure fun. This novel as well as the entire series is a gift. Enjoy!
