Hello bosom friends!! We are going to continue the delightful books about the eponymous heroine Anne Shirley with the next one in the series, Anne of the Island by L.M. Montgomery (Anne of Green Gables #3). Myself, u/Pythias and u/Amanda39 will be leading the chaos as we follow Anne in her latest adventures.

If you haven’t been following along and want to catch up, you can read the discussions for Anne of Green Gables (Book 1) here and the discussions for Anne of Avonlea (Book 2) here. We will begin reading Anne of the Island in late October, so there is plenty of time to find a copy.

I’m only going to post an abridged blurb of the book, as the full blurb on Goodreads etc spoils some major plot points (first-time readers beware!)

New adventures lie ahead as Anne Shirley packs her bags, waves good-bye to childhood, and heads for Redmond College. With her old friend Prissy Grant waiting in the bustling city of Kingsport and her frivolous new friend Philippa Gordon at her side, Anne tucks her memories of rural Avonlea away and discovers life on her own terms, filled with surprises . . .

The full schedule will be posted in October. Are you going to read along with us? Did you read the first two books with r/bookclub?
