Further Chronicles of Avonlea Audiobook

" I really liked it. Except for the last short sort. I found it to be extremely racist and very hard to read for that reason. I enjoyed all the other stories though. "

" A wonderful collection, even better than the first. Just a great, heartwarming book for a rainy afternoon. "

" This was another quick, fun read. Each chapter is a short story about a character living in or near Avonlea. It was a nice finish to this series of books. "

" I began reading book by L.M. Montgomery when I was in elementary school and never tire of them. each re-reading nets me something that I didn't pick up on when I was younger. Although I enjoy her collections of chort stories, this particular set was not one of my favorites. "

" Like the first volume, this is a collection of short stories set in Avonlea and the surrounding area. Readers of the Anne of Green Gables series will notice many familiar names and places. I have to say that I really preferred the first volume over this one. Many of the stories in this one seemed darker in tone than is normal for L. M. Montgomery, and the racism in the last story was very disappointing, although not unusual in her time unfortunately. I enjoyed stories 1,2, 3, and 6 the most (Aunt Cynthia's Persian Cat, The Materializing of Cecil, Her Father's Daughter, and The Brother Who Failed, respectively). I read that these were stories that were originally rejected for the first volume and were subsequently published without Ms. Montgomery's permission. If this is true, it would make sense, since they wouldn't be expected to be her best work. Probably worth reading for L. M. Montgomery fans, but not essential. "

" some of these stories were really nice and some of them were awful, like the last one which was crazy racist. "

" More Avonlea tales--I never tired of them or any other Montgomery story (short or long). "

" Another book of short stories by L.M. Montgomery. I like this collection but not enough to buy it. "

" I can't say that I enjoyed this book as much as the first. There were a few really great stories but I found the majority of the "ho-hum" breed. "

" I did not like this one as well as the first "Chronicles" collection, but I was set on finishing it. I'm not sure if I will pick it up again, but it is not a book I regret reading. "

" I have read this over & over- love it! "

" It never ends. Evar! Thank heaven! Reading all these different stories was wonderful, and I'm thinking I may just want to read every single thing Montgomery wrote. "

" It was a sweet read right up to the last story. I know it was normal for the time period, but the racism made me squirm. "

" A couple were great...some not so much. "

" I don't know why the writings of L.M.M. always call to me but they do. She's so soulful and genuine. One day I will visit PEI. "

" the earlier stories were definitely better than the later ones. "

" These are all sweet "feel good" stories of some of the residence of Avonlea. After a while though, many of the stories start blending together and they all of course have a happy ending. "

" This book has two of my favorite short stories: "The Education of Betty" and "The Brother Who Failed." "

" Love Montgomery's books...I devoured the Anne books as a kid, and was a little disappointed with only a single entry from her, but on the whole, I really enjoyed the book. "

" The author proved that she can write short stories as charming as her famous novels. Reading it brings back all the good memories connected with childhood. "

" Enjoyed the two additional books with the funny insights on the characters and their lives. "

" More cute short stories...love them! "

" These short stories where beautiful and funny, perfect little bites. But the last one was horribly racist, in reference to Native Islanders as being barbaric. "

" I have read this over & over- love it! "

" A wonderful collection, even better than the first. Just a great, heartwarming book for a rainy afternoon. "

" Wow. Really sappy and in recycled prose. I much prefer just plain old Anne. I wish I could memo Montgomery that not all endings have to be perfectly and neatly tied up. There are some fun characters, though. "

" I can't say that I enjoyed this book as much as the first. There were a few really great stories but I found the majority of the "ho-hum" breed. "

" A neat story although nothing can compare to Anne and Emily. "

" A compilations of short stories about various people and families that live in Avonlea. This is an easy one to put down and pick back up months later . . . "

" This book has two of my favorite short stories: "The Education of Betty" and "The Brother Who Failed." "

" It never ends. Evar! Thank heaven! Reading all these different stories was wonderful, and I'm thinking I may just want to read every single thing Montgomery wrote. "
