![]() ![]() It’s a quiet, gentle story about a young girl and her cousin and their possibly magical house.Īctually, as I was reading this, I said on Twitter that this was a strong case of “do I like this book, or do I just want to live in this house.” I do like the book, quite genuinely, but I DEFINITELY want to live in that house. ![]() It’s not exactly memorable in the sense of Things Happening. I’m quite fond of this book–it’s actually the only Stewart I own, though that’s mostly by accident. I think this is a wise choice, as it lets her write the kind of old fashioned story she seems more comfortable with. Interestingly, she sets it earlier, with Gilly writing down the story of her youth as a grandmother. Thornyhold is one of Stewart’s late books, published in 1988. Spoilers will be everywhere! Consider yourself warned. In September I’ll be going back to some of Mary Stewart’s books, finishing up with Thornyhold. ![]()
