its kinda weird though cause i never felt that way before. i'm not one to really be open to relationship or whatever. i am just very independent and i know what i want and i am going to do it. but i am also a home body and i am perfectly happy as i am. but i read this book and all my maternal instinct seemed to hit me all at once. i wanted to meet "my" Gilbert and i want to marry and have get a house and have children. i was never like that before. it was always i am going to teach and bring music to the lives of others. i am going to sing and do theatre and then all of a sudden. it was really weird. i mean i still want to sing as much as i can and teach and do theatre but someday maybe i will have a house of dreams of my own.

This is my favorite book in the series; I don't know what it is, but I adore it so. It's very romantic and down to earth and the characters seem real. It's like...the culmination of years of struggle and finally finding happiness, getting married, and having a child. You simply wish that every Anne might find her Gilbert.

i have to agree with you. i love this book most of all, so are, i am really loving Rilla of Ingleside, but books involving anne as the main central character i really love this one the most. i agree i found myself thinking of other books that i loved where the girl finally got the guy but you never knew their happy ending. i found myself saying, if this was Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy then it would completely how their life would be. because while i was reading the first anne books and watching her with Gil i was thinking to myself, oh he is your mr darcy. it was wonderful.

angel_of_joy i have to agree with you. i love this book most of all, so are, i am really loving Rilla of Ingleside, but books involving anne as the main central character i really love this one the most. i agree i found myself thinking of other books that i loved where the girl finally got the guy but you never knew their happy ending. i found myself saying, if this was Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy then it would completely how their life would be. because while i was reading the first anne books and watching her with Gil i was thinking to myself, oh he is your mr darcy. it was wonderful. I started these books in 6th grade... so I'd say that back then Gilbert was the only male model of romance I knew. And I wanted my Gilbert too. Though for me, Gilbert would now be a female, but ehh... It's still what every girl wants, this sorta story. It's not the best happy ending with no imperfections. It's the happy ending that has the troubles and struggles, the better of the two. Plus, the book is also awesome on audiotape as well.

its funny how gilbert and anne, or mr darcy and elizabeth, or even cinderella and her prince all make the basis for a story that is ever lasting. you'll always think of it that way don't you think? as long as the lovers end up together after some kind of adversity the story will be successful.

I really did love this book just because Anne and Gilbert finally got married! Also, they're other books after Pride & Prejudice that talk about Mr. Darcy's and Elizabeth's lives, they're just not by Jane Austen sadly.
