Anne of Green Gables!!!
« on: January 08, 2004, 11:12:53 am »
These are my favorite books evar! I LOVE the first book, Anne of Green Gables, by Lucy M. Montgomery. There are seven other books that follow. Even though they are classified as childrens' books, i still read them when i can. I highly recommend them if you want some fun, light reading, that has heart to it. They're books for all ages.

My sister and I grew up on the movie. There are several versions of it I think, but the one we watch is the one from the 1980's. It was made in Canada, the director was Kevin Sullivan. I think it won some Gemini awards as well (the equivalent to the Oscars). The cast is amazing. Megan Follows plays Anne, Jonathon Crombie *swoons* plays Gilbert, Colleen Dewhurst plays Marilla, and Schyler Grant plays Diana.

Anne of Green Gables!! When i was in year 5 i thought that book was very advanced and read it just to look clever- it had such hard language! I really enjoyed it in the end, though i can't remember much of it.

YAY! I looooooooooooooooooooove Anne of Green Gables. I read the entire Anne of Avonlea series when I was like 12. Plus all the Chronicles of Avonlea that came after. I have the collectors edition of Anne of Green Gables and a doll.  I used to watch Avonlea the show on the disney channel religiously. I still really want to go to Prince Edward Island. hehe..you can say I was a bit obsessed.

I think Anne was a reason why I decided I loved red hair too. I could never understand why she'd try to dye over gorgeous red hair. I do anything to make my hair red.  silly Anne.

see, i like to say "focused," rather than "obsessed."  :wink: Obsession usually goes along the lines of stalker, and unless Toni's stalking Megan Follows, she's healthily "focused." :-P
