L.M. Montgomery Quote in Boden's October 2022 Catalog

L.M. Montgomery Quote in Boden's October 2022 Catalog, "I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers" -L.M. Montgomery

This October morning, I turned the key of my mailbox and found a treat inside—a catalog from Boden, the British clothing store. I peaked inside, and on the first page was the following quote from Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery.

"I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers"

-L.M. Montgomery


Seeing the quote made me smile. Way to win the heart (and maybe wallet) of this Anne of Green Gables fan, Boden!

Here's the cover of Boden's October Issue:

Boden's October 2022 Catalog

Boden carries a lot of clothing that I think a modern Anne Shirley might like to wear. I especially love their feminine blouses with lace and puffed sleeves. Do you think a modern Anne would wear any of them?

Two Terrible Years

A quote on two terrible years of war by L.M. Montgomery in Rilla of Ingleside.
