Tan pronto como Anne Shirley llegue a la cómoda granja blanca llamada Green Gables, está segura de que quiere quedarse para siempre. . . ¿Pero los Cuthbert la enviarán de vuelta al orfanato? Anne sabe que no es lo que esperaban: una chica delgada con el pelo rojo intenso y un temperamento similar. Si tan solo pudiera convencerlos de que la dejaran quedarse, intentaría con todas sus fuerzas no seguir apresurándose a rascarse y soltando lo primero que se le ocurra. Anne no es como nadie, los Cuthbert están de acuerdo; ella es especial, una niña con una enorme imaginación. Esta niña huérfana sueña con el día en que pueda llamarse a sí misma Anne of Green Gables.

Anne of Green Gables

Sanne Hamoen

Rafaela Sousa

There is nothinng more aggravating than a man who won't talk back unless it is a woman who won't.

"Oh, Marilla, looking forward to things is half the pleasure of them. (...) You mayn't get the things themselves; but nothing can prevent you from having the fun of looking forward to them."

Aleeya Metro

All things great are wound up with all things little.

I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.

My life is a perfect graveyard of buried hopes.

Evidently she did not like talking about her experiences in a world that had not wanted her.

"Isnt it nice to think that tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it yet?"

"Im just dazzled inside," said Anne. "I want to say a hundred things, and I can't find the words to say then in".

There was in it thankfulness for the past and reverent petition for the future; and when she slept on her white pillow her dreams were as fair and bright and beautiful as maidenhood might desire.

"I can't cheer up. I dont want to cheer up.  It's nicer to be miserable!"

In the night she awakened, with the stillness and the darkness about her, and the recollection of the day came over her like a wave of sorrow.

"Have you ever imagined what it must feel like to be divinely beautiful?"

There is no use in loving things if you have to be torn from them, is there? And it’s so hard to keep from loving things, isn’t it?

"A bosom friend – an intimate friend, you know – a really kindred spirit to whom I can confide my inmost soul. I've dreamed of meeting her all my life.

"It gives you a lovely, comfortable feeling to apologise and be forgiven, doesn't it? Aren't the stars bright tonight? If you could live in a star, which one would you pick? I'd like that lovely clear big one away over there above that dark hill."

Gilbert Blythe was trying to make Anne Shirley look at him and failing utterly, because Anne was at that moment totally oblivious not only of the very existence of Gilbert Blythe, but of every other scholar in Avonlea school itself. With her chin propped on her hands and her eyes fixed on the blue glimpse of the Lake of Shining Waters that the west window afforded, she was far away in a gorgeous dreamland, hearing and seeing nothing save her own wonderful visions.

Anne de Green Gables

Tem um tempinho que li, então não é a melhor das reviews. Comecei a ler sem muita pretensão, na verdade tinha um certo preconceito irracional pela série, então não me imaginava lendo o que a originou. Mas o livro me cativou demaais, por algum motivo.

Foi muito bom acompanhar a infância da Anne, ver de onde veio o nome da série, me encantar por sua individualidade. O ritmo é um tanto lento, mas tenho uma velha paixão por coisas lentas. Dá pra notar o desenvolvimento dela ao longo do tempo, a mudança nos outros personagens, dá saudade ao fim, como se o ato de experienciar aquela história fosse algo intangível no passado.

No geral, o livro nos leva à vida de Anne, e com ela podemos aprender muito sobre nós mesmos.

When Marilla and Matthew decide to adopt a boy from an orphanage they are not sure what to expect. But it's certainly not the imaginative, red-haired little girl who arrives at Green Gables instead. Follow Anne's adventures on Prince Edward Island in the first of L. M. Montgomery's much-loved stories, which is guaranteed to delight readers aged 8 and up.

Our inner and outer worlds and our imagination can be so rich, potent, and beautiful, if only we worked towards living like Anne. If only we were all so intimately connected to Earth, Community, and our Selves.

P.S. never thought I’d hear an audiobook narrated by Rachel MacAdams but it was honestly good lol. +++ Anne with an E u will always be famous!

It's a million times nicer to be Anne of Green Gables than Anne of nowhere in particular, isn't it?' My dislikes: Being an orphan, having red hair, people twitting about my red hair, being called 'carrots' by Gilbert Blythe. My likes: Living at the Green Gables with Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert, my bosom-friend Diana, dresses with puff sleeves, renaming Barry's pond the Lake of Shining Waters, coming top of the class. My regrets: Dying my hair green. Smashing a slate over Gilbert Blythe's head. My dream: To tame my temper. To be good (this is an uphill struggle ). To grow up to have auburn hair!

It’s hard to believe it’s already been almost a month since I finished 

. Work swept me away and I left my reading exactly on the last day of May, closing the final chapters with a whirlwind of emotions stirring inside me. It’s plain to me now, clear as day, that this is one of those rare books I’ll carry with me always, and one that touched me so deeply I doubt another could quite stir the same feeling. I’ve found myself reflecting a lot on my own path, wishing I had Anne’s way of looking at life: as something always beginning and never defined by its end. Her ability to cherish family above all, to find joy in her work, to live with wonder and devotion—that’s something I hope to carry, too. And maybe one day, when I return to this book, I’ll do so in a better season of life: where the tears it brings will meet me not in longing but in recognition. Where I can say, quietly and truthfully, that I’ve come closer to living as Anne would.

re-reading anne just to feel something again. this is the kind of story that makes you want to revisit it every few years. anne’s fiery spirit, endless imagination, and her ability to find beauty in the smallest things remind you of the joy and chaos of childhood. reading it now, it’s easy to miss that sense of wonder we once had. every page feels like flipping through an old photo album you can never quite put down.

'Oh, it seems so wonderful that I'm going to live with you and belong to you. I've never belonged to anybody' When a scrawny, freckled girl with bright red hair arrives on Prince Edward Island, Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert are taken by surprise; they'd asked for a quiet boy to help with the farm work at Green Gables. But how can you return a friendless child to a grim orphanage when she tells you her life so far has been a 'perfect graveyard of buried hopes'? And so, the beguiling chatterbox stays. Full of dreams, warmth and spirit, it is not long before Anne Shirley wins their hearts. This collection of the best children's literature, curated by Virago, will be coveted by children and adults alike. These are timeless tales with beautiful covers, that will be treasured and shared across the generations.

What a journey! I first encountered this book when I was around eight, and I remember loving the abridged version so much. Fast forward to the present, I finally finished the og! Oh Anne, if only I were half as enthusiastic as you. It was such a pleasant ride to witness Anne's growth—from the wide-eyed, scrawny 11-year old to the genteel yet still steadfast 16-year-old lady she had become. There are plenty of things to love about this book aside from the bubbly heroine: Matthew and Marilla's relationship with Anne, the kindred spirits, and of course, the og academic rivals to lovers trope, Anne x Gilbert! The way Montgomery writes feels magical, too. 

I chose to pick up this book as a distraction from all my uni readings. Despite feeling so tired, I always felt refreshed upon reading this as Anne's zest for life was so contagious. On to the next book!

Anne, an eleven-year-old orphan, is sent by mistake to live with a lonely, middle-aged brother and sister on a Prince Edward Island farm and proceeds to make an indelible impression on everyone around her.

5 ★ - (adored, absolute favorite)

It's been five years and as of yet I can't stop thinking about this book. Probably my most favorite piece of literature ever written. Anne Shirley is the loveliest, need I say more? 12/21/23

Oh what a dear dear book! I was rather nervous about rereading it but having loved the 80s movie so very much every time I've rewatched it (more than several times I'm sure) I took it up with confidence that Maud would not fail to weave the same magic for an older Lily. Twelve year old me simply loved this and she'd be proud to know that I thought it absolutely delightful! I did need some encouraging to start it, mainly because I'd just been reading some newer books with simpler writing ya know, but encouragement came through my writing course which instructed us to study a quiet story and as soon as I was invested it felt like being home with an old friend. Anne of Green Gables, charming, captivating... and still one of my most favorite books ever written, if not *the* favorite! I teared up towards the beginning, poor dear love-starved Anne! And again towards the end, sweetest Matthew and Marilla. I don't recall crying the first time, and I may have just forgotten, but it was so touching I couldn't help myself now. I had planned to read the rest of the series this summer but wasn't sure if I'd do so after all due to the book hangover I experienced upon finishing this. I truly didn't know what to do with myself! And though I want to pick up another book I couldn't... but after a good nights sleep I think the only thing to cure the hangover is to finish the series XD 

Full of gorgeous landscapes, lovely people, and the sweetest protagonist. This book is a treat. I think Maud and I would be kindred spirits and I think fondly of her and her writing :) 6/27/24



CWs, or things that caught my attention: Mentions/descriptions of deceased parents, Anne is described as "a witch of a girl" & having "cast a spell" on someone & the witcheries of nature or something like that (I take it L. M. means enchanting), accidentally drunk character, illness, injury, dares, ghosts, death, near drowning, grief, rivalry, a certain girl who is quite unbearable, selfishness, vanity, scrapes, character thinking they must have been "born under an unlucky star", bank failure.

I read this series multiple times as a teen, but for some reason the first book in my personal collection was the children's abridged version; so, this is my first time reading this book! I love Anne so much, I love this writing, I love this world (even if I see a lot of problematic points in the 100+ year old culture that I didn't notice as a youngster). L.M. Montgomery is such a joy to read and exactly my cup of tea.

Wonderful storytelling, comforting with characters you want to root for. A real pleasure to read!

Classic for a reason! The plot was a lot slower than I remember but it was beautifully descriptive and still engaging.

Great book. Not sure why Marilla had to be so stone-cold all the time. Love most of the nature descriptions, they made me want to live in the countryside.

so cute!! only problem was i could only imagine the characters/setting from the show… i wish i read the book before watching it😞

Leí estos libros hace más de diez años. Releerlo ahora ha sido como volverlo a leer de nuevo; la experiencia es genial.

Chloe Garcia

gilbert blythe. that’s all. jk that’s not all i’d also like to say that i wish Anne were a real person just so she could see how much comfort she has brought to all the weird girls of this world who have always felt a little out of place. this story and any other adaptation of it is just a warm hug.

Briar's Reviews

Anne of Green Gables is a classic Canadian tale by L.M. Montgomery.

Way back in the day I read some of this book. My school didn't always get us to finish the books we started for reports, so I never actually finished this one! I always felt really icky about this book because Marilla and the other adults (minus Matthew) frustrated me. They were all so mean in the chapters we read. I never really got the read the growth or understand what was going on. We watched some of the movies and television episodes, but that was it.

Flash forward: University. I get to read this book for a Can Lit class and WOW OH WOW it's so beautiful. 

This bildungsroman follows Anne Shirley when she gets adopted by Marilla and Matthew Cuthbert. It's kind of awkward since they wanted a boy and got "stuck" with a little, red-headed, spunky girl. She walks into this world as a talkative, imaginative young who girl changes the lives of everyone in Avonlea, P.E.I.. This little girl has a temper, her own opinions on everything and sees the beauty in nature. She's such a wonderful child who is going to grow and learn.

The metaphors, personification, amplification and all the literary devices in this book is incredibly. L.M. Montgomery was a master at her class. The beauty of this piece of literature matched with the fact middle graders all the way to adults will love this book. Add in that Anne and Marilla can be so much more than just characters: both of them are mother figures to each other, Anne is a relatable child, Marilla's feelings are relatable as an adult. It's got so much packed in this little book, it's kind of hard to believe I didn't read it sooner. 

The ending is almost bittersweet. She becomes an adult and appears to have lost her spark (but I guess I won't know for sure until I read on...). 

If you haven't read this book and enjoy fiction with lots of beauty, grab this one. It's an incredible Canadian classic and I'm super impressed by it.

Five out of five stars.

Beautiful, nostalgic and a bit tragic at the end🥲. Contains the sweetness and simplicity of childhood. Perfect to read in the summer! Anne has a very special character which I loved to get to know. I’m very curious about her development in the next book(s). 

loisesya

My comfort read series. Every book so so perfect.

Ranks up at the top with best cozy, heartwarming, summery books, right alongside The Secret Garden as far as children's classics go. So happy I finally got around to reading this as an adult

Puffin in Bloom is a charming assortment of classic novels with coming-of-age themes, aimed at the young reader. Bond, a stationary artist with Rifle Paper Co. renowned for her floral patterns, puts her signature touch on the covers in this lineNbecause just as a flower blossoms, a young child comes into her own.

So beautiful! How I wish someone had recommended this book to me when I was young!
