There definitely was passion between Valancy and Barney. She wanted to experience sexual love before she died and she knew Barney was the perfect man to do it with.
I also don’t like Anne and Gilbert as a married couple. He became condescending and she lost her spark and her vibrant personality. When Leslie and Ford fall in love…..they’re definitely more passionate than Anne and Gilbert!
I also think Ilse and Perry made a wonderful couple, although it took them a long time to get together.
Barney Snaith remains memorable and sexy ….99 years after “The Blue Castle” was published.
Oh, this was always my absolutely favorite LMM book! Blue Castle, then the Emily series... and my Anne favorites (Anne of the Island and Rilla of Ingleside being TOPS in my book [so to speak]).
You need to know that I was thinking about you as I wrote this, and every time I reading Uncle Benjamin saying, "She's gone dippy," I heard it IN YOUR VOICE, because I think you may have been quoting it at some point during the time in which I actually heard your voice (which hasn't been for 20+ years now) which was likely how I knew that we would be friends. Kindred spirits, indeed. Thank you for reading!!
