Anne of Green Gables - Book Review and Giveaway


I've always been a reader. The book that defined my childhood reading was Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery and the other books in the Anne series. I loved them. I read them over and over. I still have my original set, even though in 9th grade my dog ate the first chapter of the first novel. Since then, I have purchased additional copies of Anne of Green Gables. I've encouraged my children to enjoy Anne's story of resilience, intelligence and love. I was fortunate to marry a man who also loved Anne and is always willing to read another chapter to the kids each night or watch the marathon movies inspired by the novel.

If it's time for you to update your own Anne collection or if you're simply new to this masterpiece classic which still resonates with all, be sure to see the newest edition of Anne of Green Gables from Penguin Classics. Featuring a foreword by J. Courtney Sullivan and beautiful cover art from Siobhan Gallagher, this edition of Anne of Green Gables is absolutely lovely. There's definitely someone on your Christmas list (maybe even you) that needs this book under the tree on Christmas morning.

This is my favorite series ever...I have 2 sets of the books - my original set from when I was young and then I bought another set when Sourcebooks released the set a few years back with the painted covers. I'd love to win this book to add to my collection :)

I don’t even know if I’ve read this book! If I have, it’s been a long time. I guess I need to add it to my “to read” list!

I remember my mom reading it to me but I’d like to read it again as an adult or at least to my kids.

I didn't think my kids would love Anne as much as I have, so I haven't bothered... But I Will start reading it to them now!

I'm impressed that your husband even knows who Anne Shirley is! Mine surely does not. Ha ha!

This edition of the book looks super cute. I'd love to have it in my collection. Thanks for the chance to win!

I'm kind of embarrassed to say that I have never read this... I need to fix that real soon!

The Anne of Green Gables series are the BEST books! I read the whole series multiple times and everything else this author wrote. I'd love to read it again and share it with my nieces!
