A very old book with a speckled brown cover and the title and author in black – The Blue Castle by LM Montgomery
The first page of the book with the name of the owner, "Mollie Collins, 7 Balmoral St, Waitara", with Mollie crossed out in pencil and "Ann" written in over it, then "Ann" corssed out in pen and "Barbara" written in over that.
Anyone else got a treasured book like this? When I read it I have to turn the pages gently, as many are no longer attached to the binding. It was published in 1928 (so nearly 100 years old!) and was my grandmother Mollie's, passed on to my mother and aunty Barb before I got hold of it

"Rage Against the Snuff Brown Silk" would be a cool band name. #TheBlueCastle

quote
“How can a woman keep a man’s love?”
—‘by not returning it.’
That’s some cold, emo stuff right there, Lucy. Cold.
In 1926.

#TheBlueCastle we find out how much the thing actually cost! It is amazing and terrifying
#TheBlueCastle
I got to the end of the book! The happy ending and the magic fairy-tale happy ending!
#TheBlueCastle "The world seemed good again just because you were in it"
🥺😭
#TheBlueCastle 'It was something of a large order to expect Mrs. Frederick to be kind and sympathetic.'
That's Valancy's mother, right there
#TheBlueCastle 😭😫😭
#TheBlueCastle and the despair that returns
#TheBlueCastle the despair of being long-lived, and the reprieve and relief that having a year left to live brings!
#TheBlueCastle "They must have cost a great deal—fifteen dollars, at least."
Trying to work out what 15 dollars means and remembering she was paid [30 dollars a month] as wages, so 15 is half a month's salary. That is a lot of money.
#TheBlueCastle so people who like cats are good, and people who don't like cats to the point they distrust people for liking cats are bad
#TheBlueCastle the other reason is that it's a friendly book: we the readers are Valancy's friends, and we want her to be happy
#TheBlueCastle one of the reasons the book feels so friendly is I knew a writer who was very good at pastiche, and she used this voice for some of the stories she wrote when she was young. So I hear the voice of a friend telling me this story.
#TheBlueCastle we're supposed to think barney is secretly john foster, and so I am thinking it
#TheBlueCastle there are books! She gets to read, and she gets read to! She gets to read novels! She gets to read whenever she likes, un-interrupted!!
#TheBlueCastle Valancy gets given a name she likes, that makes her feel beautiful
🥲
#TheBlueCastle the contrasts! The contrast of life before (in Elm Street) and life now(in the Blue Castle)! Every detail! Having a fire in September! Having cats!
