![]() ![]() This is the story of how I became Anne of Greenville. Refreshingly bold and unapologetically unique, Anne of Greenville will make you want to stand up and sing! In this coming-of-age novel by fan-favorite author Mariko Tamaki, see the classic tale in a whole new light. Is she MTB with Gilly? Or is Berry her true soul mate? Only time (or 304 pages) will tell. ![]() Falling quickly into that age-old trap of ignoring the best friend for the new crush, Anne soon becomes embroiled in a series of dramatic and unfortunate events, and quickly finds herself wrapped up in a love triangle she never expected. Both personality quirks quickly come into play when the soccer team boos the premiere of her disco performance, which-in a roundabout way-introduces her to her new BFF, Berry, and she soon after meets the girl of her dreams, Gilly. Recently relocated to middle-of-nowhere Greenville and starting at a new school, Anne has a tendency to A) fall in love quickly, deeply, and effervescently and B) fly off the handle in the face of jerks. In this modern reimagining of Anne of Green Gables, Anne is an ABBA-loving singer/actor/writer of disco-operas, queer, Japanese-American who longs to be understood for her artistic genius. It's also the story of how I found my true true, and how I needed to maybe come to Greenville, of all places, to make that happen. ![]() ![]() ![]()
