Anne of Avonlea (version 2)

Perfect bedtime story

These books need no more reviews. Their heart and warmth have stood the test of time. I add that Karen Savage does such a wonderful job that this series is my go-to for getting to sleep. Karen does some fun voices, but not so dramatic that they rattle you, as others can do. And her tone for the Anne books fits perfectly with Montgomery's wistful words.

Anne is such a fulfilling character

Ahh, Anne in the role of a teacher is everything I could ask for. My heart is so full when she talks about her students and I feel an unfamiliar warmth hearing how she's denying her beliefs have changed and ever will change. I love her character to the deepest parts of my soul, I am so glad I came across these books.

If you're looking for an unpretentious, hopeful tale of good human character, this is it. I purposely seek out Karen Savages narration as it's the best I've found one this app. Thank you Karen. Lucy Maud Montgomery has given us a character who is beautiful inside and out. Giving and endeavoring to better herself and the world, and brightening the life of everyone she touches. it's a story of unremitting positivity. Yay for you LMM. I need more of this today and everyday. 😁😁😁

A gentle, interesting, living story read by an excellent reader. The author writes excellently the inner thoughts of characters, humorously and thoughtfully their interactions and lives, with splendid descriptions and insights of the beautiful natural world they are set in. The reader is clear-voiced with well-placed inflections that lend to good understanding of the audible text. Thank you LM Montgomery for your story, Karen Savage for your labor, and Librivox for organizing and providing the reading!

Simply delightful

This is a wonderfully fantastic story read by a talented young narrator. Perfect to get swept away by on a cold winter night. These stories give me serious anemoia! How delightful it would be to be a fly on the wall in the home of one of these fabulous characters. Suffice to say, I will happily settle for listening to this lovely story told by such a clear speaker with a smooth, not unpleasant accent.

Karen Savage is superb and this story gets better with age

I have listened to multiple works read by Karen Savage and I am always pleased with her tone and diction! I remember as a girl reading in Avonlea and juicing interest… But now grown-up, this is one of my all-time favorite works Murray. I love how we see Ann’s fanciful notions mixed with Dearing characters and real life in PEI.

Simply Splendid!

This book is, like the earlier one, extremely well-written and beautiful in every sense of the word. Anne grew up to be a young girl full of love and hope for life whose existence brightened the world. Despite having been published for a century, Anne's story and her contagious positivity always lifts everyone's mood. Perfect for a night in, sitting by the fire with a cup of hot drink!
