Anne of Green Gables

Justine Larbalestier tweeted a link to "Best recap EVA of the Anne of Green Gable books" so followed and found myself reading The Ballad of Anne and Gilbert by Diana Peterfreund.

I only ever read the first couple of books in the series and it was so long ago I can barely remember anything about it but I still found it highly amusing.

From the Anne of Avonlea section:

"Marilla and Mrs. Lynde: Gee, that Anne and Gilbert are hanging out a lot together — well, as much as they can considering how far away he works and all. Bet they’ll be getting married soon.

Anne: Oh, you silly old biddies!

Gilbert: Anne, don’t you think they’ve got a point?

Anne: Huh?"
