β¦ Synopsis
New adventures lie ahead as Anne Shirley packs her bags, waves good-bye to childhood, and heads for Redmond College. With old friend Prissy Grant waiting in the bustling city of Kingsport and frivolous new pal Philippa Gordon at her side, Anne tucks her memories of rural Avonlea away and discovers life on her own terms, filled with surprises...including a marriage proposal from the worst fellow imaginable, the sale of her very first story, and a tragedy that teaches her a painful lesson. But tears turn to laughter when Anne and her friends move into an old cottage and an ornery black cat steals her heart. Little does Anne know that handsome Gilbert Blythe wants to win her heart, too. Suddenly Anne must decide if she's ready for love...(goodreads.com)
βAnne laughed.
"I don't want sunbursts or marble halls, I just want you.β
βWhen you've learned to laugh at the things that should be laughed at, and not to laugh at those that shouldn't, you've got wisdom and understanding.β
βI've loved you ever since that day you broke your slate over my head in school.β
βAll life lessons are not learned at college,'she thought. Life teaches them everywhere.β
βI wouldn't want to marry anybody who was wicked, but I think I'd like it if he COULD be wicked and WOULDN'T.β
My sentimental favorite of the Anne series. I always thought college was going to be just like that - my best friends, a cute little house in a great neighborhood, and my childhood friend, madly in love with me. Anne is one of my favorite literary heroines... I must have read this book 30 times, and it never gets any less fun. It's one of my top 5 comfort books. (Chelsea, goodreads.com)
Enchantment. Wonder. Delight. These are the words that best describe the emotions of one who reads L.M. Montgomeryβs Anne of the Island. (Hannerz47, goodreads.com)
I fell in love with Anne of Prince Edward Island when I was 13. I remember that summer vividly. I brought home each book in the series from the library and read them avidly. Anne and her simple troubles were such a contrast to my divorcing/fighting parents. (Laura, goodreads.com)
