Lovely narration

No one else could ready Emily even half as well as Ms. Stetson has done. I cannot wait for the third book to be finished. I read these books in my teens and was glad to see them on Audible. I like Emily even better than I like Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables (after the first book).

My girls love this series

The narrator wasn’t great. She made Emily sound cheeky and rude very often. Overly dramatic and under enjoyable.

Anxiously awaiting book 3

AnnE has always been my favorite LMM character, but Emily has a special place in my heart, too. If you are unfamiliar with this Starr, I suggest giving her a chance. Emily takes a while to warm up to. Unlike AnnE, where you are introduced to the main characters early and love them immediately, there is some groundwork to be laid with Emily. There is also a lot of very slow thawing of hearts and opening of minds over the first two books. But, she grows, as do the adults and other people in her life, over that time, literally and figuratively, with her own special talents. I keep checking for a date on book 3. This narrator has a good gift for voices and ages Emily well.

Great book

I really enjoy this authors style and prose. Looking forward to the next book. It’s enjoyable to have stories that aren’t all based on tense drama and suspense, but allow the reader to journey along the life of a great personality.
