Just finished rereading some of my favorites out of the "Anne" series of books by LM Montgomery: Anne of Avonlea and Rilla of Ingleside. I'd tkae up reading Anne of the Island if I could find it, but it's gone missing...
Instead I'm going to start reading Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies by Jared Diamond. I think it will be interesting.
