...by LM Montgomery. This is one of her lesser known books. When we first read this book; we thought it was a little sugary sweet. Now as I reread it again....ya; bit sugary.
It's about Kilmeny who is dumb and never exposed to society and her encounter with love. Montgomery portrays good as simply too good to be true and bad as real bad.
But I like reading her brand of romances because it is clean decent romance in a very pure and old-fashioned way unlike the modern romances which just burns and sizzles all the way with little depth on morality and values.
I like how she upholds integrity in all the stories she tells and thus her characters are built to be strong in their values.
Unlike some of her short stories, this one has a happy ending but Kilmeny's parents' love was rather tragic.
Easy to read, old-fashioned sort of romance!!!
