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).

bookedbymadeline's review against another edition

I just can’t with this book 😳 it’s so painfully dull and slow that I can’t get into it. Anne never shuts up and just talks incessantly about the most mundane things! I don’t mind character driven books but if there’s no plot and it’s just flowery descriptions and endless chatter I have zero interest. I love classics and maybe I would’ve enjoyed it more as a child or teen but  as an adult I don’t have the patience for this
