Childhood Flashback: Revisiting the Anne of Green Gables Series
Anyone who knows me well knows that one of my favorite childhood books was Anne of Green Gables. I actually love the entire series.

From then on, Gilbert Blythe became my dream guy.…… Continue reading Childhood Flashback: Revisiting the Anne of Green Gables Series
The Valentine Writer: Helping Others Find Love (3.5 Stars)
I recently finished reading The Valentine Writer by Iris Lim. It’s a novella about a lady, Mary Danforth, who has helped her siblings write love poems for their future spouses. Yet, she’s never found love herself. Periodwise, I would consider it a Regency story, but it doesn’t have many of the elements of a traditional…… Continue reading The Valentine Writer: Helping Others Find Love (3.5 Stars)

Sisters by the Sea: Liberal Amish Novellas (3.5 Stars)
Recently, I finished reading Sisters by the Sea, a collection of four novellas each by a different author. While there are Amish characters, they seem to come from a less strict Amish upbringing than is generally presented in books or other media. The Seashell Cake (3.5 Stars) This story was cute. I liked our two…… Continue reading Sisters by the Sea: Liberal Amish Novellas (3.5 Stars)
