Anne of Green Gables Challenge, day 13

Least favourite book in the series?

Anne of Ingleside. It’s not really about Anne any more, but cutesy little anecdotes about the children, but they are too young to really have much personality or issues I can really care about. (I know Anne was only 11 when we first met her, but her character was formed right away. Not so much her kids - except Walter.) Also, there is much gossip and matchmaking of characters we’ve never heard of before and will never hear of again. It’s quite hard to care. There are some gems in this book, and there is an interesting and very believable, if rather sad, storyline set around Anne and Gilbert’s wedding anniversary, but this book doesn’t sparkle like the others.
