Anne of Green Gables

I know some of you out there will admit along with me that Anne and Gilbert were your first ship.  Just in case some of you didn't know, the 100th Anniversary of the printing of Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery is this year.  Amazon.com has a 100th Anniversary edition out right now in hardcover, if anyone is interested.  

I confess that I read the cover right off my original copy.  I know some of you did the same - anyone care to reminisce about Gilbert Blythe?

Yes, it was. At the time I was really looking forward to it and I remember being disappointed because it just wasn't what I was expecting. Not after how loyal they had been to the storyline in the first two pieces. I treat that last installment like I treat 'A Pain in the Heart'...it simply didn't happen in my world... ::insert innocent whistling here::

Very good idea - if everyone participates in the delusion, then that will make it go away. And I'm definitely game for applying that principle to 'A Pain in the Heart'. **whistles with you**
