I just realized I'd better jump in and say, before NastyGoon Googles and "tells the group", that her cult novel was /Anne of Green Gables/. I'm sure you recognize the title, and probably her name with that prompt, but just didn't make the connection.
Well, it was a novel for girls. I probably read my sister's copy.

I recognized the cast in that version. It was a mini-series on CBC in
the mid-1980s. It got excellent ratings, and lunched the career of Megan Fellowes, who played Anne. I knew it had been released in some countries
as a movie, but didn't know that included the USA.
