I never realised how many chapters are Anne nattering on about things to Marilla and the chapter ending with Marilla basically just telling Anne to shut up 😂 ah, ever the sympathetic listener she is.

I ADORE the girlhood in this book. The play hours and trying so hard to be good and being excited at being invited to tea. Laying her head in Marilla’s lap, chatting as they watch fireflies dance between the swaying grasses and the whispering poplar trees. Schoolchildren picking mayflowers in the spring. Diana and Anne dipping sticks in balsamic fir and then in the brook to make rainbows, talking about dryads.

the descriptions of trees and flowers, lakes and lighting is everything.
'Overhead was one long canopy of snowy fragrant bloom. Below the boughs the air was full of a purple twilight and far ahead a glimpse of painted sunset sky shone like a great rose window at the end of a cathedral aisle.'
