3.5 stars. I always enjoy reading her books. There is something so comforting about her stories, they seem so wholesome and real. While these lacked depth and were sometime repetitive thematically, it was still a nice fun read.

I read this when I was just about to do a really intimidating work presentation, and it was super-encouraging to read stories about people beating the odds. Try this when you're feeling discouraged and need a pep-talk!

L.M. Montgomery is a long time and all time favorite author of mine. She writes the perfect girls story with just the right mix of adventure, drama and happiness. I find her books a comfort to read and have re-read most of her works many times over the years. They are classics for a reason and that reason is they are great. These are true comfort books for me and books I enjoy re-reading again and again.

L.M. Montgomery has a special place in my heart. Her tales have a special flavor that only she brings to the page. The stories made me chuckle and shed a tear. Montgomery's writing style is not for everyone but I find it appealing.
