You have excellent taste. Lucy Maude is one of my all time faves, her characters kept me company for many years. Funny thing is, I couldn't get in to Anne the first time I tried to read it. Think I was 7 or 8 when my mom gave me the first book? I don't know what was wrong with me, but the beginning was just too slow, and I set it aside. I never put books down unfinished, so it's weird. (Had already discovered CS Lewis by then.) Then one day I picked up Emily of New Moon, and after that I couldn't get my hands on her books fast enough.
Could comment on lots of your other picks, but I'm about to fall asleep and would end up with keyboard imprint on my forehead. Again.
