Yuck..
Judging from the reviews it seems all that have read The Blue Castle by L.M. Montgomery weren't happy with this book at all. The same is true for me. The Blue Castle is full of beauty and humor...while this novel was a pale shadow of it. The story line is very much the same, but holds none of L.M. Montgomery's magic. Frankly, the book was boring and I skipped through most of it once I got to the middle. In my opinion, skip this novel and read The Blue Castle.
OK for this genre, I guess
For some reason I thought this was going to be a somewhat meatier 'Shell Seeker' type-book, and I continued to think so until about the middle of the book, but then realized it was a romance novel.
OK, I guess as romance novels go. I thought the 'ghost' storyline was stupid - at one point, I thought maybe she had faked her death. No matter, pretty well-written for it's genre but nothing I'd highly recommend.
Wonderful, tongue-in-cheek, feminist tale
Very short, reads fast, makes you laugh. A feminist social satire set in the early 1900 somewhere in Australia. It's the story of Missy, a poor and put-upon spinster living under the autocratic tyranny of the male members of the family. She seems destined to a life of misery till a cousin, recently divorced (delicious scandal!!) arrives in town and sets the 'gentlemen' in their place with a scheme that leaves the women in the story and the readers of the book richer for the experience in every way.
Very witty and very wonderful.
