Avonlea Vignettes

Just thought I’d share my Senior Quote! I know Anne never said it in the books, but I’ve always loved that quote.

group reread + discussion schedule
Here’s the schedule I came up with for our reread. The discussion questions will be posted on Sundays (for example: the Anne of Green Gables questions will be posted on June 10th).

Anne of Green Gables | June 3rd - June 10th
Anne of Avonlea | June 10th - June 17th
Anne of the Island | June 17th - June 24th
Anne of Windy Poplars | June 24th - July 1st
Anne’s House of Dreams | July 1st - July 8th
Anne of Ingleside | July 8th - July 15th
JULY 15TH - 22ND | BREAK WEEK
Rainbow Valley | July 22nd - July 29th
Rilla of Ingleside | July 29th - August 5th
The Blythes are Quoted | August 5th - August 12th 

For those that do not have all these books you can read them online (links here) or download them for kindle (links here). 

Tell me what you think of the schedule! Should I add in another break week? Should we read the Chronicles of Avonlea along with the Anne series? What about other LMM works? And how many people actually own a copy of The Blythes are Quoted?

I’m going to reread the Anne series this summer (after finals and graduation), and I was wondering if any of you followers would like to participate in a kind of discussion group? For example, while or after I’m reading one of the books, I’ll ask a question about the plot/characters/writing/etc., and we can all talk about.

If that’s something you’d enjoy, answer this post or shoot me a message. I’d love to see how many people would like to do something like this. What do you guys think?


Megan Follows (Anne Shirley) reading Anne of Green Gables.


Perhaps, after all, romance did not come into one’s life with pomp and blare, like a gay knight riding down; perhaps it crept to one’s side like an old friend through quiet ways; perhaps it revealed itself in seeming prose, until some sudden shaft of illumination flung athwart its pages betrayed the rhythm and the music. 

Perhaps… perhaps…love unfolded naturally out of a beautiful friendship, as a golden-hearted rose slipping from its green sheath.


"Nothing mattered much to me for a time there, after you told me you could never love me, Anne. There was nobody else — there never could be anybody else for me but you. I’ve loved you ever since that day you broke your slate over my head in school."
— Gilbert Blythe, Anne of the Island, Ch. XLI
