Kate Scarth

Like in the Emily of New Moon series, Emily has the sixth sense, for example.

So there's that kind of Scottish, like supernatural element at play in some of her work, too.

So I like that Heather Fawcett draws that out.

I love Anna James' book, Tilly and the Book Wanderers.

And Tilly actually gets to jump into Anna Green Gables and go to the Avonlea schools.

And that's a really fun one, I think, that highlights the magic of books.

And actually, in terms of just like a book that references Anna Green Gables briefly, Kate Quinn's new book, The Astral Library, allows people to escape their...

very difficult lives into a book of their choice.

And there's this one little girl who's been abused and her choice is to go into Anna Green Gables, which is very powerful, right?

Like that book as an escape, which it has been for so many people kind of metaphorically.

And then for this little girl in Kate Quinn's book, Anna Green Gables is a literal escape from her life.

That's right.

Yeah, so I read really widely.

I really enjoy reading the classics.

My PhD was on Jane Austen and writers of that period.

So I love anything like 18th or 19th century.

I love a mystery novel.

I've been doing some challenges on Instagram, like the Dickens December, last December 2025.

I love A Christmas Carol.

I love reading that every December.
