Dude, you haven't read Anne of Green Gables?
Long ago, when I was a kid. I remember a few bits of it, but it wasn't a favorite.
Thanks for telling me the ending, Hil. That's supremely depressing. No wonder I didn't remember it.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Note to self: Don't admit to Dana that I haven't read Anne of Green Gables either.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Everyone should read Anne of Green Gables. And watch The IT Crowd. And like The IT Crowd.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Everybody should read Anne of Green Gables! Or if not that, then Emily of New Moon, which I actually think is a better book, though way more somber than Anne, and with a much creepier romance in the later books.

I've actually been reading the annotated version of Anne. The footnotes can get kind of annoying, but in the back, it's got the full text of all the poems and skits that characters recite or perform throughout the book, plus a few of the songs, and a bunch of historical essays that helped me finally figure out what all the different ranks and classes and everything in the school and college parts meant.

I've never read Anne of Green Gables either.

I should, somewhere, have an old edition of Anne of Green Gables around. Nicked it from my Aunt's house years ago. Long before that time she gave me carte blanche to go through the old books up there.
I mean, I didn't mean to keep it. I'd borrowed it for the drive home. Just never got it back to her, and when she started letting me have at the books, figured, eh, what the hell?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I've read it. I've read almost all of those books. The earlier ones were the best ones. Of course the tv series with Megan Follows was best, with Richard Farnsworth and Colleen Dewhurst as Matthew and Marilla. Or that could just be my deep love for Dewhurst and Farnsworth talking.
askye, I'm glad you failed. I'm glad you're here, and I'm glad I got to know you a little--wish there was the opportunity to know you better, since I like what I know, a lot.
