I'm so sad to be finished with this book. That's how much I loved it. Rachel McAdams' voice is so warm, buttery and soothing. And I don't don't where to begin to describe my love for the characters and the writing style. I considered eating it 4.75 for some of the outdated views and whatnot but the good so outweighed everything that it's a 5 star for me.

I wish I had liked this more! Some of Anne's bits just dragged out for so long. I loved the start and ending, but around 60% way through I felt quite bored. Maybe I thought that there would've been more adventure and less monologue. Loved the main characters so much!
I read this as an audiobook (loved the narrator).
