Montgomery Reading Challenge this year. It's easy to get stuck in a rut with reading, but the book club gives a nice opportunity to break free. <br /><br />I generally avoid reading introductions to books if they're written by someone other than the author--too often they try to do some sort of in-depth analysis that sucks the joy out of the book (better to analyze <i>after</i> you've read, in my humble opinion.)<br />bekahcubedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11449654823418176968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6511052179322289323.post-74680550715572767792014-01-27T09:06:28.344-07:002014-01-27T09:06:28.344-07:00LOVE L.M.

It has been quite a few years since I read it, so I guess it's about time to reread it.<br />My most favorite trip ever was when my sister and her family took me with them to PEI, touring Green Gables and all the other LMM sights. We even stayed at Dalvay By the Sea which is the hotel shown in the opening scene of the movie.

In my humble opinion the world could use a little more Anne a little less MTV but who am I to judge? Have a blessed week.

I must look for it. They have a museum out at Green Gables in Cavendish where you can visit and see many artifacts from Montgomery's life. It is very interesting. Have you ever visited? <br />I have visited Green Gables many times over the years and I still love to walk the lanes where she walked. My father used to golf at Green Gables almost every weekend when I was a girl and it was such fun exploring. I don't much care for the winters here but in the summertime, there is no nicer place to be. Thank you for sharing and coming to my Anniversary Tea Party. Hope you're having a lovely week.<br /><br />Blessings,<br />SandiSandi@ Rose Chintz Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415214311003251398noreply@blogger.com
