• Kindred Spirits.

  It’s Book-of-the-Month Day, yo! A short critique of L.M. Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables Good morning, Dear Reader! As usual, I intend to keep this review short and sweet. Very sweet.

My signature move at parties is to ask people to list their favorite things–movies, bands, desserts–without overthinking their response. “Ready, gut-reaction, go!” So in fairness, I’ve decided to list my all-time favorite books using this method.
