Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874–1942) was born in Clifton, Prince Edward Island, Canada, and raised by her maternal grandparents. She attended Prince of Wales College in Charlottetown, where she completed the two-year teaching-certificate program in one year, and went on to study literature at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia. She returned to live with her grandmother on Prince Edward Island, which became the basis for her “Anne” books. The publication of Anne of Green Gables in 1908 brought her overnight success.
John Rayburn (1927–2024) was a veteran of over sixty years in broadcasting.

He was well suited to bring fascinating stories to life concerning the people, places, and things that combine to present lively observations of our day-to-day lives.

Nothing could put the 2 of us asunder! 😊 Reading this was like finding a niche in the middle of this gruesome rea......more
The Blue Castle is without a doubt a new all time favorite classic of mine. It is also further proof that L. M. Montgomery was (and still is) a literary genius and icon! L. M. Montgomery’s humor in this story is exceptional. Her (or should I say the main character, Valancy’s) wit and sarcasm made me......more
4,5 stars Escapism at its best. This was my very first book by L.M. Montgomery and I loved it! I guess there's hardly anyone who doesn't entertain a wishful thinking of "Just-Getting-Away-From-It-All" time and again especially during this time of crisis and quarantine! Woods, water, pure air, a lovely......more
