Hands up all you Anne of Green Gables fans because this weeks Chapter Fave is Rilla of Ingleside by L.M. Montgomery! It was picked by THE 100 author Kass Morgan. Read what she has to say about this YA classic: Some people fantasize about attending Hogwarts. Others spend their whole lives looking for secret portals in the backs of wardrobes. My literary homeland is Prince Edward Island, the setting for Rilla of Ingleside, the eighth “Anne” book. It takes the sweetness, wit, and whimsy of Anne of Green Gables and combines it with the epic scope and heart wrenching romance of World War One classics like Birdsong and Parade’s End. I’ve read it eleven or twelve times at this point, and still can’t make it through without weeping. My heart belongs to Walter Blythe!
