Review: Anne of Green Gables by L. M. Montgomery

My rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐


I decided to read this book after watching the Netflix adaptation. The start of the novel was just as charming and it was wonderful to see Anne transition from a young orphan without meaningful relationships to a graduate of Queen’s college with supportive friends and family around her to support her.

My only criticism of this book is that I wish there was more to it. A lot of time was spent on Anne’s journey to Green Gables and her initial time in Avonlea, but as the book progressed, there was less and less time spent on each part of Anne’s life and it’s something that I would have really loved to read more about, especially her time at Queen’s. I’m just glad she’s still fairly young at the end of this novel so there’s still a lot of her story to be told in the other books.
