3.25 out of 5 Stars: This was more about the children in Anne's life than Anne herself. I liked watching the new generation grow but it was hard to keep track of them all.

2024 Review: I stick to my original thought of this book passing the torch onto the Blythe and Mance Children and their budding friendships. It really adds layers that you experience in the last books. 

The adults moreso become the background characters including Anne, Gilbert, Susan. Now some of the other adults in the town made some pretty racist comments that made me uncomfortable.

Overall there is a sweetness to this book with the ease of childhood and friendships with those that you find the instant click with was everything.  It reminds me of the sweetness of what I miss of childhood.

This book was completely about the pastor's kids. They didn't half include Anne which makes it less messy, but i didn't really enjoy this one that much. The kids are sweet but severely neglected and it was kind of upsetting following them this close and seeing all the abuse they have to endure, without it being properly adressed.
I think this one is a sign of its time and i believe the author wanted to write about childlike wonder and kids' life. Anne is simply too old for it now.

I love Anne of Green Gables, and many of the sequels, but this was just boring. I didn't care at all about anything that was happening.
