What if Anne Shirley lived in modern times and liked Diana instead of Gilbert?
I loved how this was done. Every bit of it is sheer gold.
Matthew was my favorite. I loved updated Matthew. Marilla was pretty cool, too.
Anne has been in fifteen foster homes and is picked up by Matthew, despite he and Marilla actually wanting a younger child. Anne has already charmed Matthew and she's quickly working her magic on Marilla, too.
The Cuthberts live in the Avon-Lea apartment building, also home to Rachel Lynde, the Barrys, Ruby Gillis, and Josie Pye.
I just love this to pieces. I can't even find words to praise it properly, as you know frequently happens when I really love something. I'm going to have to check out the same author's adaptation of Little Women. (Called Jo, of course. It's always Jo. But this time, she's gay.)
