The Blue Castle, one of L. M. Montgomery’s few adult works of fiction, is a heartwarming tale of love, self-discovery, and second chances. Valancy Stirling, a young woman of twenty-nine, has spent her entire life living in the shadow of her overbearing mother and gossipy extended family. She has never dared to defy their low expectations of her or attempted to gain independence and had long abandoned any hope of marriage. But when she receives a devastating diagnosis, Valancy decides it’s time to take control of her life and live it to the fullest. As she embarks on a journey of self-discovery, Valancy encounters a cast of quirky, vividly drawn characters who help her kindle a newfound passion for life.
With its charming and relatable characters, and its beautifully written prose, The Blue Castle is a timeless and captivating read about an endearing heroine breaking free of the constraints of society, the expectations of a judgmental family, and her own past.
