"Anne is married to Gilbert who is a doctor and they have 6 children, and a housekeeper who cooks because Anne doesn't. Gilbert is a successful doctor, so they are quite well off. I miss Anne from Green Gables. Anne just doesn't seem to be the same Anne that I loved and adored in Green Gables. Actually, she doesn't seem to be much of a mother I would think she would had been. I feel she spoils her children and doesn't discipline them enough. She seems to arrange flowers a lot rather than do the wife and mother responsibilities. Susan, the housekeeper seems to do more in that field than Anne. I did enjoy reading about each of Anne's children's in the life of each child's life, but some adventures were better than others. I really enjoyed Diana's adventure with Jenny Penny, but I really thought Rilla's cake adventure was lame. I was quite disguested with Anne when out of no where she thinks Gilbert doesn't love her anymore. It just didn't seem right when she doesn't voice her thoughts to him."
"This is my first time re-reading this book in quite a few years. Usually my re-reads of the series stop after book 3, 4 or 5, because I hate to see Anne grow up. It pains me to give any book in the series, which I consider my all-time favorite series, anything less than 3 stars, but this has always been my least favorite installment. Too many ellipses and too much repetition. Also, Anne's children are much less interesting than she was as a child. Still have fondness for the book for giving me more Anne and Gilbert, but it really doesn't measure up to the rest of the series for me. I do enjoy the older versions of Anne's children in Rainbow Valley and especially in Rilla of Ingleside, so I just needed to struggle through this one in order to get to that point in my re-read."
"Anne and her delightful children. And she's living such a life, but still she has her moments!! She's still herself, after all! Dear Anne. I love every one of these books, and Lucy Maud never lost anything when continuing Anne's story for us to enjoy! I eat her words up, the frosting and all! I could read her books for ages, but then I would have to stop because I would be so inspired to write something, anything, that I wouldn't be able to contain myself! Miss Cornelia is a delight! And then there are such sad moments, too! She has captured Anne, Anne is no longer a character, but a living, breathing soul in the universe for us all to know and be friends with."
"Probably my least favorite of the first six. I don't relate to Anne as an adult. She is the perfect wife and mother, with no ripples in the pond until late in the book. This is more a string of stories about her mostly perfect children, whose faults are only the cutest and most charming. I miss the spunky little girl, as an adult Anne really has no spark.
Also I have to say, it's disappointing that Anne gave up her writing. Surely with a full time nanny/housekeeper/cook, she could find a little time for herself to do some."
