Anne’s House of Dreams is probably my least favorite in this series. I can’t give it more than three stars; if I’m 100% honest, and it wasn’t an Anne book, I’d probably bump it down to two stars.

The first time I read this novel, I […]

Like most of the Anne books, there isn’t really much of plot for the book it is instead a series of interconnected stories that slip through the years […]
