Little Fishes

I was looking at all the options for adding animations were, and I came across some little fish. In my opinion, they were kind of irresistible. So if you look at the bottom of the page, you'll see some creatures of the sea, and you can post ideas on what to name them.

Anne of Ingleside, L. M. Montgomery, 4.6 stars, 274 pages

   Anne has moved away from her dear House of Dreams to Ingleside, because the family was growing too large: at seven, and with a baby on the way! Her children have their funny friends, faults and foes, but they're put to a slight pause when the horribly aggravating Aunt Mary Maria come, and stays longer than called for. Even with this, and much more, Anne loves the Ingleside happenings until she starts to worry that ______* doesn't care for her as much as usual. It just takes Anne to make her husband love her again!

NEW FEATURES!!!, Eden, 5.00 stars, 1 page (JUST JOKING!!!)

   So...you might have seen the new poll I put up on the right-hand side of the screen. Every month I'll try to have a new one. It's just kind of fun for me to see what kinds of people visit my blog, and you might also enjoy seeing what other people's opinion's are on things, or what they do, and things like that. There's one new feature. Another one is what I mentioned in the last Anne post: I'm going to try to have a place where you can suggest books for me to review. Tell me what you think of these, suggest ideas, and of course, PLEASE COMMENT!

Anne's House of Dreams, L. M. Montgomery, 4.4 stars, 227 pages

   Ah, Anne. I didn't forget about you, I promise! Okay, maybe a little. But I'll try to hurry up and finish the series, and then we can move on to the many other books I've read/am reading.
   Anne has finally married her beloved ______*, and now they have moved to their house of dreams. At the part of the island called Glen St. Mary, Anne reassures her husband that with the water for a backyard, Miss Cornelia's peppy visits, and the gleaming lighthouse where old Captain Jim lives, she could never be lonely, and can't imagine anyone else who would--until she meets Leslie Moore. Leslie's tragic childhood lasted until she was an adult, and it takes Anne's "kindred spirit" to shine a light into Leslie's dark world.
* I can't say who she marries; it would spoil everything!!!
   In my opinion, this is the second saddest (second to the eighth) yet sweetest book in the series. The title makes it sound like it's all about the house, and I wasn't looking forward to reading it, but then: You can't judge a book by its title!
   I would also like to say that if you've heard of a book that I might've read, and 1) you want to hear what I have to say about it or 2) you're wondering what it's about, comment! I might be able to have a spot specially marked for that...

I'm so sorry again/ Harry Potter and the Sorcerer/Philosopher's Stone, J. K. Rowling, grrr...ratings, 309/223 pages

   Okay, so after camping (yes, in the woods) for almost two weeks, then heading to a camp where computer access is hard to find, once again, I've read about 2,000,000 books and haven't blogged. I'll TRY to make up for it!!!!

   As you saw, this is supposed to be about Harry Potter, and I know almost everyone knows the basic story, but, oh well. Also, you saw I had the Philosopher's Stone up on the title, and that's the English version, just in case you live in the UK. Same with the two page numbers. Anyway...

   Harry Potter is a wizard. But the thing is, he has no clue, because his horrid uncle and aunt (who he has to stay with as his parents were killed by Voldemort, second most powerful wizard in the world) hide all the mysterious letters Harry receives. Uncle Vernon does his best to prevent it, but Hagrid (someone from the school) comes anyway and leads him to buy supplies for his new school, Hogwarts. There Harry makes new friends, learns interesting subjects, and has a place he can finally call home. But Hagrid is acting suspicious about something, and it takes Harry coming face to face with Voldemort to sort it out.

  And the rating: if you've read this series, you'll agree that these books seem so different (in a good way) from others that you can't rate them, so I'm not.
