Firstly, I love Anne of Green Gables and I love musical theatre.

Secondly, I had already listened to the soundtrack and I am very much in love with it (but now I know not all the songs are on the CD and I'm sad because I wanna hear them).
So obviously I was going to love this book.

When I heard there was a musical about one of my favorite character and one of my OTP, I had to see it. Sadly, I live very far away, so I can't do this. BUT because of whoever decided to write down the script and publish it, I can pretend I have seen it.

It retrace quite well the events of the 2nd & 3rd books of Anne of Green Gables, even if it's only a play of ~2 hours. I also like the little changes (yes I am mostly talking about this thing at the end).

Now I'm just going to read it again and again and again until I learned every single word of the play, and then perform it all by myself.
