Avonlea Vignettes

aquintessentialgirl asked: "I totally second comparing Anne and Gilbert to Mary and Matthew! That would be such an interesting comparison. In season one of Downton Abbey Mary was very proud and a bit foolish about her feelings for Matthew. Much like how Anne acted towards Gilbert early on in the books. Anne and Mary have to be two of my favorite characters ever. Anyways, I also wanted to tell you I LOVE this tumblr. Thank you for this blog about my favorite carrot haired girl. You are definitely a kindred spirit! :)"

Thank you! I definitely agree with every thing you’ve said here - I’d mention more parallels right now but I don’t want to spoil it for anyone.

I’m so glad there are so many kindred spirits in the world :) As Anne said - “Kindred spirits are not so scarce as I used to think. It’s splendid to find out there are so many of them in the world.”
