I definitely feel the pressure very intensely, which sucks because I like reading older books a lot and my backlist TBR is HUGEEEEE.<br /><br />Anyways, LM Montgomery is fan-freaking-tastic.

Perhaps it's the fact that I read the Emily books for the first time at 17, but I think I may even love those ones more than the Anne books. I laughed, I cried, and I didn't want the series to end. Plus, when I was visiting PEI, there's an Anne play. I was so excited to see it, but it wasn't playing the night that we went. Instead, they'd just started an Emily play, and it was alternating nights with Anne. Let me tell you, at the end of that play, I was doing the messy gaspy sobs -- I loved it SO, so much. As an Anne fan, you MUST go to PEI one day!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06191496127517215717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453643548383938123.post-72128643200610331032012-06-22T07:21:15.804-04:002012-06-22T07:21:15.804-04:00It is excellent to have a series that you love thi...It is excellent to have a series that you love this much.

I think The Story Girl and The Golden Road are my special favorites though. But really, I just love LMM's writing and characters and stories.

I read Anne of Green Gables for the first time when I was just a kid and immediately fell in love! I was lucky enough to get to read it again this past year for my Young Adult Lit. class! It's always been a goal of mine to finish the series, and I know I read a few of the sequels years ago, but I honestly don't remember much. I would LOVE to just sit down and read them all!Natalie https://www.blogger.com/profile/15879112865868418812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453643548383938123.post-7594311902609517822012-06-20T14:54:09.392-04:002012-06-20T14:54:09.392-04:00How fantastic!

I look forward to your thoughts on all of them. And I LOVE your very-loved set of Anne of Green Gables. You must dream of reading them to your own children one day - I feel the same with my collection of Trixie Belden books :)Brie @ A Slice of Briehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02445361407533018855noreply@blogger.com
