Rilla of Ingleside

In the final Anne of Green Gables novel, the spotlight falls on Anne’s youngest daughter, Rilla Blythe, as the First World War transforms her from a carefree girl into a courageous young woman keeping the home fires burning on Prince Edward Island while her brothers go to fight. Tender, funny, and deeply moving, it is one of the few contemporary novels to portray the war’s impact on Canadian women and families. Warm and heartfelt, Rilla of Ingleside blends coming-of-age, romance, and the ache of wartime with Montgomery’s beloved charm. A poignant conclusion to the Anne saga, it captures both the sorrow of war and the resilience of the human heart.
