Book Review: Anne of the Island by L.M. Montgomery

Posted by Liam on

Author: L.M. Montgomery
Title: Anne of the Island
Publication Info: Books in Motion (1993)
ISBN: 1556864612
Summary/Review:  The third book of the Anne Shirley series sees Anne off to college on Nova Scotia, studying, making new friends, and setting up a new home.  Letters and visits to home emphasize Anne’s growth and change as she spends time away from her beloved home.  There’s also continuing intrigue regarding her relationship with Gilbert Blythe.  Enjoyable, but lacking the magic of the first book.

Rating: **1/2

    More on Anne Shirley as a “stealth feminist.”
