A little reminder that the #KindredSpiritsBuddyRead discussion for Anne of Manhattan is coming up in just a couple weeks! (I still need to start reading... 😆) I've tagged those who've said they'd like to join in this month - if you're not tagged and you'd like to be, please let me know!

TheAromaofBooks Yay!! I'm about halfway through. Really looking forward to discussing this one!! I am enjoying it as a story... but not as much as a retelling, if that makes sense 😂 1y
willaful Please tag me in. 1y
BarbaraJean @willaful I‘ll add you to the tag list! Glad to have you! @TheAromaofBooks I‘m only a few chapters in, so I‘m still distracted by Anne being short and I‘m also wondering how Mrs. Rachel Lynde, president of the Temperance Society, feels about the Green Gables Winery… 😂 1y
OrangeMooseReads I‘m several chapters in, not my typical pick, it‘s fun so far. A nice change for me. 1y
TheAromaofBooks It's little things like that that bug me about this book as retelling. Like... Diana is not athletic?? 😂 And Anne's hair has been described as “orange“ more than once... also not true; orangey-red is totally different from auburny-red lol In some ways it's just that I'm too close to the original story; it's too much a part of me for me to really enjoy someone mucking about with it LOL 1y
