A Fan of the Anne of Green Gables Series
I am a fan of L.M. Montgomery and the Anne of Green Gables series, as well as Megan Follows - the actress who played Anne Shirley in the TV versions. She reads with the same relish and talent that appeared in the television shows. Since its original release, I have listened to this audiobook again and again. This and the others of the series have been a delight that I have shared with many and I hope that you too will enjoy...

Great, but sadly abridged
I love, love, love that this is narrated by Megan Follows. No voice but hers will ever be the Anne in my head. Sadly it is an abridged version, which I didn't realize before I purchased. I wish Megan Follows would have narrated the full-length books.

Great Narrator...Poor Quality Recording
This is a great novel and a great narrator. If you've seen the tv movie, "Anne of Green Gables" you'll recongize the voice of Anne. However, the quality of the recording is very poor. You do get used to it, but it is distracting.

Don't Bother
Would you try another book from L.M Montgomery and/or Megan Follows?
I love LM Montgomery and all her Anne novels. I have read them many times. This book is weirdly abridged. They leave out bits of detail here and there. It is really irritating, and it causes some gaps in the plot line. They also have odd music at random times that really detracts from the experience.
What do you think your next listen will be?
IDK. Back to browsing what is available!
How did the narrator detract from the book?
It can be hard to tell which character she is reading at the time. There is very little difference in tone / intonation between different characters.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
No. Just read the original - it will be a much better experience. It isn't a long book. Abridging it was just ridiculous.
Any additional comments?
Audible needs to be make the note that the book is ABRIDGED more obvious. I never would have wasted my money on this book if I had seen that.

Sweet story
Never read the Anne of Green Gables series before, but LOVED the movies as a child. The books are, of course, even better! The narrator could have used a little more variety in her voices to help communicate who was speaking, but she was pleasant to listen to. Of course LM Montgomery is a gifted author! And Anne is a delightful character! My daughter, age 8, and I enjoyed our car trip so much as we listened.

Not Happy With Audio Quality
The audio quality was kind of grainy. There was also music overlayed at crucial parts of the story which made it difficult to hear what the reader was saying. The book itself was wonderful and I feel bad leaving such a bad review for such a good book.

Although this is an abridged version, all the best parts of this book are included and narrated perfectly by Megan Follows. If you love the Anne-girl, or are a kindred spirit then you must listen to this version.
