In the running for probably my favorite book of all time. I wanted to be Anne so bad when I read this book for the first time when I was eleven. Since then I have reread this probably five or six times. The ultimate springtime read — makes you cool with being alive again . My copy is from 1968 and basically ripped in half. If you have a tendency to be a miserable bitch who feels sorry for themselves you need some Anne pronto. I will never watch the show or movie because the book is so perfect in my little mind I don’t want anything to ruin it. PEI is my ultimate destination.
When I first started reading this I was in shock because I didn’t know people were allowed to write books like this — so incredibly honest in an almost jarring way. I’m already re-reading it.
The book is only around 65 pages and is a reflection on a passionate affair Annie had with a married man. She was so obsessed with him in, at times, a very relatable way. It feels so intimate, like you’re reading a personal diary.
just finished reading this after sitting on my bookshelf for 10+ years. one of my favorite reads this year although re: your criteria, it may be a little bit depressing but in a chill nothing matters type of way. Confusing at parts (which is kinda fun) and would consider rereading
I’ve famously always said June should be the first month of the year. It is when the year truly begins. I’m not even awake or paying attention to anything until the sun starts setting past eight. The anticipation of summer is over but you still have the whole thing in front of you.
If you find the right one, it’s the best job ever. Free food and drinks, amazing gossip and new tea every day, so much human contact. I love serving I love bartending. You get to wear cute little outfits and flirt for tips. Finding the RIGHT restaurant is the key. many are shitty to work in. You gotta find one you believe in, if that makes sense.
