An immersive reading of the complete novel.
Read along, word by word.
Anne of the Island (1915) is the third of L. M. Montgomery's Anne books, following Anne Shirley away from Avonlea to four years of study at Redmond College in distant Kingsport. Among new friendships, a beloved shared cottage called Patty's Place, and a steady procession of suitors she keeps turning down, Anne chases her girlhood ideal of romance — only to discover how little she understands her own heart, and how patiently Gilbert Blythe has waited for it. A coming-of-age story about leaving home, growing up, and learning the difference between the dream of love and the real thing.
