I have the first three books with the same covers. I know they are children's books but they are so pretty so I couldn't resist buying them when I saw them at a book fair. I'm about to finish re-reading the first book.
I'm having trouble choosing which versions of the books I should buy so I'm watching a bunch of videos lol. This set is absolutely gorgeous! I was introduced to Anne of Green Gables (1980's) version in 2016/17 I believe, the one with Megan Follows and I have watched the first season of Anne with an E as well. With that said, I think they are both great in their own way, but I have to say despite being the same in some ways, they give me completely different vibes. I just remember Anne with an E being a little darker/edgier whereas Anne of Green Gables is absolutely my comfort movie and gives me all the warm feelings. I get such a tremendous sense of longing and nostalgia with AOGG. All this to say, I adore AOGG and I am glad more people have been introduced to her recently through the series because she is magical.
Thank you so much for watching and sharing your thoughts! I did a lot of research as well before purchasing this set and these definitely were the ones I liked best! I hope you find a set you like just as much as I like this one 😊 I haven't seen the 1980's movie but I'm definitely planning on doing so! I've heard that the adaptation is a lot more faithful to the book, so I think it'll be a little more light hearted than Anne with an E, which will be interesting. I've heard other people say that Anne with an E is edgier/darker and I have to say, while it does have some dark moments in the first season (like the flashbacks she has to the orphanage) I feel like it lightens up a little in season 2 and 3! The show honestly warms my heart and I love seeing the character growth everyone goes through (especially Marilla, she grows so much because of Anne and I love it). So I definitely recommend checking out the other seasons as well 😊 I'm curious to know which edition you eventually buy, so keep me posted 😁
@@AnneleenRoesems Oh you absolutely have to watch the 1980's version, it is my comfort movie that just makes me fall in love with life and its beauty. Even the books and the 1980's version aren't all happiness and loveliness as we know by certain events that take place in the story but minus those parts all is good. Hhmm, I should definitely finish the series then! I guess the show is probably better about showing the characters' development throughout the years huh? Since there's three whole seasons. I love Marilla and Mathew. But Mathew is my favorite, I relate to him and his quietness and shyness and I just love how he loved Anne so much from the very beginning, he was so kind and indulging with her. I am about to put in my order for this version that you have right here after I decide on what other books I want to purchase with this order lol.
I'm definitely checking out the 80s version soon! It sounds great 😊 Yes, in the series there's lots of great character development! Especially Marilla 😊 Matthew is the sweetest, isn't he? He definitely has his heart in the right place. Oooh that's exciting! Let me know what you think of your copies!
May i know what brand is this? Because i want to buy the 4th one separately because i already have the first 3 books as the 4 th book is not available in nice quality separately
I haven´t seen the show or read the books yet, but I bought an old edition set last autumn. I really didn´t get into it because of the spacing of words and letters and font size. So I am selling them and just ordered the first three books in the virago edition you have :) If I like them, I´ll order the rest!
I love the Anne of great gables stories. Anne with an E is great but I loved the Anne of green gables with Megan Follows she will always be my favourite Anne 🙂 it’s an older adaptation than Anne with an E. You should check it out. I grew up with that version. I also love in Nova Scotia Canada 🇨🇦 I’m currently reading the first book in the series as I never read them only saw the films.
@@AnneleenRoesems I love it so far. How she describes things. The 80s movie is my favourite. I find her more dramatic and less tearful in Anne with an E
I will definitely check the 80s movie out, thank you for the recommendation! I also love the way she describes things. Usually I don't care for a lot of description in books, but she does it so well I can't help but love it 😊
Yes it does! I lived close to Bridgewater and Lunenburg for a few months 😊 I stayed with a host family and went to high school there and loved it! Is that around your area?
Hi! If you read the first book, you will recognise a lot of things that happened in the first season of Anne with an E! But after that, the books and the tv show become a bit different, especially in terms of plot. I would say that the books are a bit more “casual” than the Netflix show. By that I mean that the events that happen are a bit more everyday, as opposed to the more “dramatic” events that happen in the show (for example the swindlers in season 2 are not at all in the books and the plot about Kakwet going to a repressive school isn’t in the books either, in fact the character doesn’t exists at all). But overall the vibe is pretty similar! Nature is very important and the characters are very close in the books and the show! And it’s about living in a small, rural society and trying to be a better person every day 😊 so if the characters and the antics that Anne and the other characters get up to are the things you enjoy most about the show, I’m sure you will enjoy the books too 😊 and you do find out what happens to Anne and Gilbert 😊
@@AnneleenRoesems that’s great, I just received my book set and after what you said I’m just super excited to know more about Anne, thank you so much ❤️
Where can you buy these books in this edition as a complete set? I haven't been able to find a full set anywhere but really want these ones specifically!
I ordered them through a Belgian retailer, so maybe you can find a retailer in your area that can deliver them too. Alternatively, you can order them straight from he publisher :) I'll add there website to the description of the video in a few seconds!
Anne with an E is losely based on the first book, but there are some new things and characters that they added, for example Bas, Rose and Kak'wet. Also the ending of the first book and season 3 is different, so I suggest that you just start off with the first book 😊 you'll recognise a lot, but there's also new things in the book!
if you loved a tv show or film of this story, dont go buy all the books thinking you will love them. I tried to read the book, i didn't like the way it was written whereas i loved the tv show: anne with an E, i advice you to take the first book from a library, and then decide if you want to buy the books
Hi there! I completely agree. Using the library for that exact purpose is great! I had already read parts of the first novel before I watched Anne with an E, but didn't finish it. After I watched the series, I tried again and loved the book. It was only after that that I decided to buy the full set 😊 the show truly is wonderful and I'm very happy that it introduced me to these lovely books 😊
Hello! I will see all your videos following this one but would you say it is similar to the series in Netflix? Or did the books give you a completely different vibe that from the series? I guess what Iam asking, will i feel like iam continuing the series by reading the books? Or am i far off lol? (I loved the series in Netflix and i watch it once a year, every year… hehehe)
Hi David! Totally valid question 😊 if you read the first book, you will recognise a lot of things that happened in the first season of Anne with an E! But after that, the books and the tv show become a bit different, especially in terms of plot. I would say that the books are a bit more “casual” than the Netflix show. By that I mean that the events that happen are a bit more everyday, as opposed to the more “dramatic” events that happen in the show (for example the swindlers in season 2 are not at all in the books and the plot about Kakwet going to a repressive school isn’t in the books either, in fact the character doesn’t exists at all).

And it’s about living in a small, rural society and trying to be a better person every day 😊 so if the characters and the antics that Anne and the other characters get up to are the things you enjoy most about the show, I’m sure you will enjoy the books too 😊
@@AnneleenRoesems Thank you for the reply! I appreciate it, i been trying to find out for a while the answer to that question and you hit it on the spot. I saw the rest of the videos where you talk about each book and i do believe i will enjoy them 😁. Love your content by the way, you are great! ☝🏻😌 I love the art on the versions that you got, i found them on amazon.
You could start with the first one and then recognise a lot of the events from season 1! There’s also a lot of things that have been changed in the series. You should know that the ending of the first book is different from the ending of season 1 (or 2 or 3), so you could skip the first book and start with the second book, but you might be confused about some parts. Season 2 and 3 don’t really follow the books at all.
@@AnneleenRoesems Thank you. I bought the second book because 2 books weren't in my budget. If you could take some time to tell me the ending of the first book?
I hope you like it! The first book ends (I believe) when Anne finished school. She doesn’t end up with Gilbert but they do become friends and Matthew unfortunately passes away 😔
I love them! I made a whole series on my channel about each book (except the first one) and also made a ranking video 😊 My favourite is the last one, Rilla of Ingleside, and Anne's House of Dreams is a close second. I hope you can save enough money soon and enjoy them as much as I did!
How old are you if I may ask? I want to read them but feel like I’m too old (26) and reading about teenagers will make me feel even worse haha this sounds so weird when I’ve written it down
I'm 25 so I totally get you! We do follow Anne throughout her life, so we're not reading about teenagers the entire series :) it is a children's series, so it's easily digestible, but I do still think it has a lot of humour that is directed to a more mature audience. There is a lot of focus on the adult characters as well :) I would say: go for it and see what you think! Let me know if you decide to give the series a go and how you like it 😊
Love this! Can’t wait to start reading mine! I don’t care if they’re children’s books! I’m 25 and love Anne w an e!
I'm excited for you! I only have one more to go and I'm so glad I started reading them ☺ I'm 25 too and I would say they are for all ages, haha 😁
Great review! Could we see the inside of the books next time please. I am also a huge Anne with an E lover, I wish there was a season 4!!
Thank you for the feedback! Will do next time 😊 and yes, me too!!
I have the first three books with the same covers. I know they are children's books but they are so pretty so I couldn't resist buying them when I saw them at a book fair. I'm about to finish re-reading the first book.
They truly are beautiful editions! Have fun reading 😊
Already had the first five and am going to buy the next two!❤

@@AnneleenRoesems Thank you :) I’m from Norway, so reading english can sometimes be difficult
I understand :) I've been trying to learn Norwegian for a while, I think it's a beautiful language! Good luck with the books :)

Yes it does! I lived close to Bridgewater and Lunenburg for a few months 😊 I stayed with a host family and went to high school there and loved it! Is that around your area?
I'm considering to buy this set wanted to check if it unabridged version?
Hi Sharon! Thanks for watching 😊 This is an unabridged set. Let me know if you decide to buy them and tell me what you think!
hi could you people please tell me if this publishing is reliable? is it unbridged and completely?
I'm gonna purchase the same edition as yours and i can't wait to get my hands on 'em 🥺❤️
That's so nice 😁 have fun with them!
@@AnneleenRoesems ofcourse ❤️ and thankyou for doing this review 🥰
Nice! Just finished the book and I'm glad to find your video 😊
I'm glad you like it! 😊 are you planning on reading the rest of the series?
Watch the movies! They are completed and are way better than the show imo
I need closure, like I am heartbroken. I need help
I feel you!
