My dearest, I can't tell you how much I have loved reading this story. I am so proud of you! You have done an AMAZING job melding two of my very favorite things in the world (best. cornwine. ever.) This last chapter was simply gorg and I couldn't be happier with it. And thank you for the shout out of sorts- she bought a potato! Heh! I love you, and this story. A LOT. Yay!
Author's Response: Thanks so much, babin! I'm so glad you've enjoyed it and that you've been my real-life cheerleader. And I couldn't resist the bit about the potato, it was too absurd not to put in. I luh yuh tuh!

I've been reading, but all kinds of work has kept me from reviewing like I should have, but I wanted to take this free moment to tell you how much I've loved this story. So creative and well done. It was great. :)
Author's Response: Thank you so very much, carbondalien, I'm so glad you've enjoyed it!

It's been years since I either read the books or watched the movies, but I adored them both. This sets such a lovely, perfect tone right from the first line. I'm off to read the rest now!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I admit, I'm a bit dissatisfied with the first chapter, but I'm glad it works!

Wow. I love how you've shifted a little and put a purely Dunder-Mifflin moment into the Avonlea setting, instead of the other way around. Swaying to the choir practicing was gorgey and so perfect. I don't think you realize how happy this story makes me, or how proud I am of you! Sooo good!
Author's Response: Thanks so much, you rock! I'm so glad you enjoy it!! I'll admit, i couldn't wait for you to read this chapter!

Wow, what an amazing job making both the book and the canon of the show work so well together! I absolutely loved this chapter, probably my favorite yet (because I love the Jim and Pam friendship building up). Aw, yay. This update made my day!
Author's Response: Oh, I'm so glad you like it! This review makes my day ;-)

Wow! Pam and Jim have always reminded me of Anne and Gilbert! I never thought of writing them into the story though! This is really a fun read and creative. can't wait for a walk down lovers lane and Jim trying to hold her hand and tell her how he feels. So sweet. You really have a lot of possibilities here. great job :)
Author's Response: Thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying it...there's more to come!

There are so many things I love about this- Katie Pye and her smooth curls making purses in class, Mr. Scott and the Widow Gould, Dwighde Schrude, wink-y Jim Blythe- soo clever and funny.
Is it wrong that I laughed out loud when Kelly mentioned her sister dying in such and off-hand, unconcerned way? Hehe.
Author's Response: I'm so glad you love it! I do love Kelly. I'm getting ready to writ more, so yay! Thanks for the review!!

Dwiiiighde Schruuuude. Hee!
I'm loving the idea of sweet, pink-cheeked Pam and floppy-haired, lanky Jim. Very nice!
Author's Response: Thanks! And thanks to you for your constructive compliments on the last chapter- that was one of the reasons I scrapped my original third chapter, so THANK YOU! I like this one much better!
Date: April 18, 2007 09:24 pm Title: Mrs. Marjorie Lynde is Surprised
Yay! Cool new chapter! Just don't be afraid to stray a bit, okay? I liked how you worked Pam's drawing into the story, for example.
Author's Response: Oh, I'm not afraid to stray..the first few chapters are exposition, but it'll get going. I'm so excited that you like it!
Date: April 17, 2007 05:23 pm Title: Mrs. Marjorie Lynde is Surprised
Wow, I really love this so far. I never really realized how similar this is to Pam's life. I mean, Anne even has a Roy(al). Bravo, and thank you, because now I just have to go back and reread the books! I haven't read them in years!
Author's Response: Yay, I'm glad you're rereading them- I am too, and they're so good.
Thanks for the review!

Omigosh, I am as crazy-obsessed with Anne of Green Gables as I am with the Office! This is a delightful start, and I am Kelly-excited to see more of it!
Author's Response: Yay! I'm so glad you like it!

Yay! I loved the Anne books as a kid so this is exciting to read. This is such a fun idea for a story. :) I love that you've preserved the tone and the way the books are written.
Author's Response: Thanks for the compliment, I was striving to keep the tone. Thanks for the review!

Anne of Green Gables is definitely my favorite movie/book of all time. I can't wait to read more :)
Author's Response: It's one of my favorites as well, and I'm excited to be doing this- I'm so happy that you like it!

This is wonderful! Phyllis and Bob Vance, Vance Dairy! I love the way you have taken the real language from the book and adapted it to fit. I haven't read the Anne books for many, many years, but reading this I remember whole passages from the beginning chapters. BRAVO!
Author's Response: Aw, thank you! I'm so glad you are enjoying it and that it's bringing back good memories---you should reread AoGG, it's lovely!

Yay! I love Anne of Green Gables! This is going to be great, and you're off to a fantastic start. You've done a super job with the Montgomery style. Can't wait to read more!
Author's Response: Oh, I'm so glad you said that- I was hoping I captured the tone well enough.
Thanks so much for the feedback, and I'm so glad you like it!!

YAY!!! I have been anxious for this since I first heard you were considering it! It is perfect and I can't wait for more. Vance Dairy, hehe! Please, please, please when you get to the end with Orphan Pam and Jimbert go more with the book (I have a dream..) than the movie!
Author's Response: Oh, my God, Jimbert...that's awesome! The ending is my faaavorite, and it'll have to be more booky than movie-y.
I'm glad you like it!!!
Date: April 17, 2007 10:07 am Title: Mrs. Marjorie Lynde is Surprised
Yes! I loved it! Although I couldn't help laughing all the time I was reading it, haha. Did you rename Rachel as a tribute to the elusive Marjorie we've never seen or is it just a coincidence?
I really, really can't wait for more!
Author's Response: Yeah, it was deliberate!
I'm so glad you're enjoying it!!

This is so cute! I'm so glad someone ran with this idea. I love these books and I can't wait for more. :)
Author's Response: Thanks! You'll get more as fast as I can write it!
