Emmy Lou Musgrave's Reviews > Anne's House of Dreams

A great addition to the Green Gables series! In this one, Anne and Gilbert are finally married and move to a small oceanside town, to their house of dreams. Montgomery's descriptions are as vivid as ever and, damn, this might be my house of dreams too! Anne meets a whole new cast of kindred spirits and has some adversity that she overcomes. She starts her family with a baby boy named James Matthew. This book does run a bit slower than the others, but I think it's because Anne has grown up; she's about 25 in this book. She doesn't get into as much mischief, so we get to see the lives and thoughts of the side characters more than before. This book is also shorter than the others, but it's definitely not lacking.
