Publisher Description
Anne Shirley leaves the familiar fields and quiet lanes of Prince Edward Island behind as she steps into a new chapter of her life at Redmond College in Nova Scotia.
College brings fresh friendships, intellectual awakening, and a wider world than Anne has ever known—but it also brings difficult choices. As she balances academic ambition with the pull of home, Anne faces romantic proposals, shifting loyalties, and the growing realization that love, like life, is more complex than the ideals she once imagined.
Set against the gentle rhythms of early twentieth-century Canada, Anne of the Island is a story of maturity and self-discovery—of learning when to hold fast to dreams, and when to let them evolve. With warmth, humor, and emotional insight, L. M. Montgomery traces Anne’s journey from girlhood toward womanhood, capturing the quiet moments that shape a heart and define a future.
This beloved third novel in the Anne Shirley series continues one of literature’s most enduring coming-of-age stories.

About L. M. Montgomery
Lucy Maud Montgomery was born on November 30th, 1874, in Clifton, Prince Edward Island, Canada. Although she lived during a time when few women received a higher education, Lucy attended Prince Wales College in Charlottestown, PEI, and then Dalhousie University in Halifax. At seventeen she went to Halifax, Nova Scotia, to write for a newspaper, the Halifax Chronicle, and for its evening edition, the Echo. But Lucy returned to live with her grandmother in Cavendish, PEI, where she taught and contributed stories to magazines. It was this experience, along with the lives of her farmer and fisherfolk neighbors, that came alive when she wrote her Anne books, beginning with Anne of Green Gables (1908). Anne of Green Gables brought her overnight success and international recognition. It was followed by eight other books about Anne and Avonlea, as well as a number of other delightful novels, including her Emily series, which began in 1923 with Emily of New Moon. But it is her delightful heroine Anne Shirley, praised by Mark Twain as “the most moving and delightful child of fiction since the immortal Alice,” who remains a popular favorite throughout the world. She and her husband, the Rev. Ewen MacDonald, eventually moved to Ontario. Lucy Montgomery died in Toronto in 1942.
