Emily of New Moon

meadowlark12 - I am in the process of reading L. M. Montgomery's Emily of New Moon. Emily's sweet father just died, leaving her to the mercy of her mother's family, the Murrays. Emily, shocked and heartbroken, wants nothing but to be with her father again. But instead she is taken into Aunt Laura (the sweet one) and Aunt Elizabeth's (The stern, no-nonsense, plain, sensible one) home on New Moon. Emily slowly warms up to her new environment, and discovers the pain and joy in having friends. I love this book because Montgomery is such a beautiful writer, the very one who wrote Anne of Green Gables. Her writing flows like a river! I hope you liked this book as much as I do.
