L.M. Montgomery (1874 – 1942), the Canadian author best known for her Anne of Green Gables and Emily of New Moon series, wrote just two novels specifically intended for adults — A Tangled Web (1931) and The Blue Castle (1926). Presented here are two reviews from the year of the latter’s original publication.

The Blue Castle has been published and republished in numerous editions in print and audio. While this book may not be as famous as Montgomery’s Anne and Emily series, it’s beloved by those who have discovered it, and is one of her few standalone novels. Read More→
