Anne of Green Gables was indeed a very good book. I still prefer my own nomination, Kim, but I'm glad to have read AoGG at last.

I'm currently reading Before Adam which is interesting, especially for the matter-of-fact acceptance of human evolution less than 40 years after the publication of The Descent of Man, but (half way through) doesn't have the depth of feeling of Kim or AoGG.
