This is the second book of LM Montgomery that I'm reading (first being The Blue Castle) and compared to that, Kilmeny of the Orchard just falls flat. The issue that this book has is the fact that it is deeply rooted in fantasy, quite to the point that you would never expect real human beings to act this way. Perhaps, the author wanted to show us unbridled emotions and how they would transpire in actuality but all it felt like was reading a badly done romance book where the plot was only being pushed forward by the words that the author typed out, and not quite the actual storyline. All in all, for anyone looking for something romantic or perhaps an introduction to LM Montgomery's work, I'd definitely recommend reading The Blue Castle over this one.
