Anne of Ingleside

I finished this "Anne book" recently but had never posted anything concerning the subject. There isn't a great deal to post but I like to keep track of what I've read.

This was the missing book in the series for me. I had read all the way up to Anne's House of Dreams and somehow skipped to Rainbow Valley. So coming back after several years I was curious what my reaction would be.

I liked Anne of Ingleside well enough. I think it better than what I remember of the next book which seemed to leave Anne quite behind. Each of the children get their due attention but I think I took the most liking to the affairs of Nan and Di. Particularly Nan's commitment (well meant but unnecessary) to walking through the cemetery after dark and Di's complications in friendship with Jenny Penny...
