Review:
I really enjoyed learning more about L.M. Montgomery from this excellent
biography. I have read the Anne of Green Gables series when I was a
child, and Montgomery’s style of writing and simplistic setting of Green Gables
always had me longing for an adventurous life such as Anne Shirley’s. Catherine
Andronik’s biography shows exactly how Montgomery formed Anne into a familiar
character that a lot of girls can relate to and inspire to be. It becomes clear
how Montgomery used her life experiences to make the series so many love. I
especially enjoyed reading about Montgomery’s start as a writer and how some of
the funny circumstances we think of that happened in Green Gables actually
happened to her in real life. It was also interesting to see the similarities
between the author and the character she created. Anyone who wants to learn
more about the author of Anne of Green Gables and of how these stories came to
be, this book is for you.
