A classic for all ages, this official, unabridged edition of Anne of Inglesidefeatures the unforgettable character of Anne Shirley and special memories, exclusively from L.M. Montgomery's granddaughter. There's never a dull moment in the life of wonderful, whimsical Anne. The adoring mother of five lively children—with a baby on the way!—Anne's life is full to bursting. And that's before the overbearing Aunt Mary Maria arrives for a lengthy visit... Still, there's nowhere Annie would rather be than her own beloved Ingleside in the adoring arms of her husband, Gilbert. Life with her imaginative, adventurous children seems close to perfect until Anne begins to worry that her very busy doctor doesn't love her anymore. She may be a little older, but she's still the same irrepressible, irreplaceable Anne of Green Gables—and she's ready to make her darling husband fall in love with her all over again! Anne Shirley once said, "Dear old world, you are very lovely, and I am glad to be alive in you." That sentiment is echoed by readers around the world who've fallen in love with this remarkable heroine.

I have been saying the same thing about the last few books I have read in this series that I feel like I'm starting to sound like a broken record. I still love Anne as a character and I am loving following her through the different stages in her life. Honestly that is what is making me want to continue on with this series because I have some issues with other things.
First Gilbert is still barely a part of the books. She makes it to where he's basically in the background of the story which has been bugging me throughout the whole series but at this point I am kind of numb to it I guess lol. I have also struggled to keep up with how much time has been passing through each of the stories. Honestly I have no clue at all how much time has passed. All I know is that Anne is and adult with a lot of kids. Speaking of kids she has named pretty much every single one of her kids after characters that were in previous books and while I am not getting them confused with each other I do wish some of them at least could have been named differently.
That's pretty much it. I think if I didn't love Anne so much I wouldn't have continued on with the series.
