So now that I have read the first book in the series, I am determined to make it through the whole series. I already have the next 2 here with me.
This book did not have as many of Anne's mishaps in it, probably due to the fact that Anne was growing up. She taught school for the two years that this book took place, which made me nostalgic thinking about my year of teaching. She did, however, manage to fall through a roof of an old henhouse while trying to see into one of their neighbor's windows. She also helped Marilla take care of a set of twins, one of whom was always getting into trouble. She even helped reignite a long lost love, and at the end decided to go off to college. I KNOW that she and Gilbert get together at some point, and I think it will be soon. Overall, I have been really liking this series (big surprise, since it's so popular and classic).
When I read these books I think of how Cora's middle name was almost Anne. If I had known her hair would be RED I would have definitely insisted. But Cora Faye flows so much better than Cora Anne, and we will (most likely) have another girl with a chance to name her however we want.
