Definitely not among my favourite of the books. I slogged through it, but it went so much slower and I didn't really care that much. The well-to-do'ness of Anne's kids and the condescending way people from the fishing areas are portrayed kinda left a bad taste in my mouth. I mean, it was pretty much how things were, but there seemed to be much more of a gap between Anne's household and everyone else than Marilla's household and everyone else, y'know? Standard for the local doctor vs. the peasantry, but it was that extra 'everyone poor is trashy' flavour that put me off. It seems like there was a lot more 'poor but respectable' in the earlier books.

At any rate, despite its many flaws and outright boringness, it does help set the stage for Rilla of Ingleside. I do love that book, both because it really brought home WWI and because in many ways the social fabric felt a lot more like the Avonlea days.
