Summary

When Sara Stanley, the Story Girl, returns to Carlisle to spend the winter with the King family, she comes up with a great idea. To help them through the dreary months ahead, she, Felicity, Cecily, and Dan will publish a magazine. From “Personals” to “Fashion Notes,” from the etiquette column to its stories of the most interesting happenings in Carlisle, Our Magazine quickly becomes the most entertaining publication anyone in town has ever read.

But seasons pass, nothing is forever, and soon it will be time for the Story Girl to leave her good friends on Prince Edward Island, friends with whom she has walked the golden road of youth.

Critic reviews

“Lush, evocative…timeless…Conlin sustains the idyllic, gossipy quality of Montgomery’s story…She projects the sentimental aura of the turn of the century.” ( AudioFile)

Much better than the Story Girl

I much preferred this sequel to its predecessor, The Story Girl. There was more focus on the overarching plot and a lot less focus on Little Miss Perfect, the Story Girl! Recommended to those who like LM Montgomery’s style and works.

Beautifully Read Gentle Tale

This is a continuation of The Story Girl and is beautifully read by Grace Conlin who also narrated The Story Girl. Set in rural Prince Edward Island in the early 1900s it is a gentle tale of 6 children of the old King Family dynasty plus two of their friends. If you love Anne of Green Gables you are highly likely to enjoy this.
