Anne of Green Gables

[doc_3]

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?

Anne and Gilbert were totally my first ship, before I even knew what ships were. My favorite book of the series was the one where she finally realizes she loves him (Anne of the Island, I think) and I must've read that one countless times (it's available online as a free text). It's funny, I was just thinking the other day about how I needed to find myself a Gilbert Blythe but my friend didn't quite get the reference. :o)

Thank you very much for the info - on my wishlist it goes!

Yes, when she realizes she loves him ... I'll cry a gallon of tears to this day when I read that. Loved me some Gilbert Blythe.
