Ep 61, S4: What was L.M. Montgomery reading?

Kindred Spirits Book Club

Kelly and Ragon welcome L.M. Montgomery scholar and curator Emily Woster, Phd to the pod! Emily tells us all about L.M. Montgomery’s reading life–what books she loved growing up, what influenced her books, her active reading style and her unique writing process. And in true kindred spirit fashion we nerd out about our influential reads and Emily’s family legacy of Anne fandom!

The Anne Manuscript for high quality scans of LMM’s original handwritten manuscript and notes.

The L.M. Montgomery Bookshelf where you can find scans of books from LMM’s library including some of her own notations in the books and Emily’s information and notes about history and context of these books! An amazing resource!

And you can follow Emily on bluesky for updates about her work.
