Summary: Not the best..but pretty good
Comment: This book was my least favorite out of the four that I have read. It mostly contained letters from Anne to her future husband Gilbert Blythe. It also takes you through three years of her life living in Windy Poplars. Her one challenge she had was trying to deal with "The royal family" the Pringles. Although you might need to read this book to understand the next, I wouldnt recomend reading it.

Summary: A book you could skip in the series
Comment: Out of the entire 8 book series this is definately my least favorite book. After the 3rd book where you here so much about Gilbert you would think that the 4th book would talk more about him. Instead the entire book is made up of letters from her to him telling about her life with out mentioning really any romance between them and what is going on in his life. It has some cute stories in it and it shows Anne for the first time as an outcast that isn't liked, which is a very new thing for her, but i just could not get into this book. It is just a very uninteresting and unimportant book in the whole plot line of the series. It seems to just interupt the flow of the story line through the books. Anne of Windy Poplars is a book that could just be skipped if you are following the life of Anne.
Rating: 5
Summary: Anne in Love
Comment: I've read the entire "Anne" saga more times than I can count, at least once a year since I was 10 (that's a minimum of 15 times). This book is the "odd one out" in the series but is also one of my favorites.
Written mostly as letters from Anne to her now fiancé Gilbert while he is studying medicine and she is working as the Principal of Summerside High School, this book is much more personal than the other Anne books in my opinion.We get to see Anne as she finally grows into herself and is happy with her life and its direction.
Anne's struggles to win over the somewhat eccentric townsfolk of Summerside are alternately hilarious and touching. If you've ever been on the outside looking in, you will truly appreciate her trials.
As usual L. M. Montgomery's writing is absolutely wonderfully descriptive and very true to the era she depicts. The little "homey" touches in her writing endear her work to me more and more as I get older.
If you love Anne, please read this book and get to know Miss Shirley in a more personal way than many of the other books allow. The basic L.M. Montgomery ingredients are there as well as the usual heaping dose of charm.
