I’ve just finished reading Anne of Green Gables and could barely get through the last page, as I cried and sobbed, knowing I’d reached the end. What a wonderful book! Anne is my hero, as is L.M. Montgomery for writing such a heartwarming story.
A few years ago I read another classic I’d not ever picked up before, Little Women, an utterly charming read.
With that in mind, I’ve ordered a couple more that I passed up in my younger days: Charlotte’s Web and are you there god? it’s me, margaret. I’m eager to read them!
I adore these amazing classics. Others that I have read include Jane Eyre, Pride and Prejudice, Rebecca, The Age of Innocence and Watership Down (really enjoyed that one).
Books make me happy. Readers, what books have YOU loved?
Here’s to inspired reading, everyone!

I’ve been meaning to do this for years. Hubby hated the standing water, the mosquitoes, the whole look of this thing so I had him drill draining holes at the bottom and voila! Instant planter for this isolated area of our backyard.
Come on, sweet potato vines. Do your thing!!
And now Mr. Hedge Hog has a new home….
