Because I just don’t think my praise for Lucy M Montgomery went far enough – I bring you…more books by the same author that I’m planning on reading in the very soon!
Once I’d started on the first series of Anne of Green Gables, I found I just couldn’t stop. I’ve decided to indulge in my newly rediscovered solace and will be reading more in the extended world, starting with the following books:
Title: Chronicles of Avonlea
Author: L.M. Montgomery
Series No: 01
Format: Short Story
Published Date: 1912
Perspective: Various
Project Gutenberg: Avonlea 01
iTunes: Avonlea 01
Score: TO BE RE-READ
Thoughts:
Though I remember being very grumpy when I read this originally – Anne being only a peripheral character and all – I’m including it in this re-read as I have a feeling I’ll be more responsive now!
Title: Further Chronicles of Avonlea
Author: L.M. Montgomery
Series No: 02
Format: Short Story
Published Date: 1920
Perspective: Various
I don’t remember reading this book at all – though I know I have. Should be fun – I’ve been surprised at how much I remember from the Anne series!
Title: The Story Girl
Author: L.M. Montgomery
Series No: 01
Published Date: 1911
Perspective: Sara Stanley; The King Children; Sar Rue; Beverley and Felix; Peter
I remember these two books being (next to the original three Anne book’s I read in one glorious sunny weekend) my favourite of Montgomery’s books. I look forward to reading them again and seeing if I’m still in love with them all!
Title: The Golden Road
Author: L.M. Montgomery
Series No: 02
Published Date: 1913
Perspective: Sara Stanley; The King Children; Sar Rue; Beverley and Felix; Peter
Project Gutenberg: The Story Girl 02
iTunes: The Story Girl 02
Score: TO BE RE-READ
Thoughts:
I seem to recall that this book made me cry buckets. This whole re-read has convinced me that I’m as big a softie as ever – so I imagine it will probably have as mushy as impact as before!
I’ll update this post once I start reading these and will let you know each time a new one is completed!
