Narration Toward Books Carney's House Party (Deep Valley #1)

It is the summer of 1911, and Carney Sibley is back home in her beloved town of Deep Valley, Minnesota. She's looking forward to hosting a month-long house party, with guests including her Vassar college roommate Isobel Porteous and old chum Betsy Ray. With lots of the old Crowd and a new friend--wealthy, unkempt, but lovable Sam Hutchinson--around, the days are filled with fun. And romance seems to be in the air. But Carney can never be romantic about anyone but Larry Humphreys, her high school sweetheart, who moved to California four years ago. Then Larry returns to Deep Valley and sets the town abuzz. Will Larry propose? And will Carney say yes? In addition to her beloved Betsy-Tacy books, Maud Hart Lovelace wrote three more stories set in the fictional town of Deep Valley: Winona's Pony Cart, Carney's House Party, and Emily of Deep Valley. Longtime fans and new readers alike will be delighted to find the Deep Valley books available again for the first time in many years.

Article Of Books Carney's House Party (Deep Valley #1)

Please dont make me leave Deep Valley. I know I didnt love a couple of books in the middle, but reading Carneys House Party, I fell in love all over again, and I never want to leave.Told from the perspective of Carney, the book opens at Vassar College, and I love the research Ms. Lovelace did into Vassar and its traditions (adult me was totally berating teenage me for not applying to Vassar after reading this). The story then takes us to Deep Valley, where Carney hosts high school and college

This was sweet and cute, and I liked the unpredictable ending. Carney is a tiny bit boring to me, though. I much prefer Betsy, although I have to disagree with her about the joys of embroidery!

Not as endearing to me as the Betsy/Tacy books, but fun to see some more from some other Deep Valley friends and to hear the back story on why Carney is married to who she is married to in the later books.

I adored the Betsy-Tacy books growing up but never read this sequel of sorts about Betsy's friend Carney and the summer between her sophomore and junior years at Vassar. It's a romance (and very much of its time with college girls getting engaged and making hope chests). But I like Carney and her sensible ways and it is lovely to return to Deep Valley.

Well bummer. I've always loved this one because it's so true to life. But this time around it wasn't really as fun. I'm not sure if it was because I was tired of Betsy (who was her same flighty self) or if I thought that there should have been more maturity exhibited during the course of the party. There was a light foreshadowing of WWI that I had missed before and perhaps that tainted it. In any case, if I were to rate it now, it would be a three.

This was the first book by Maud Hart Lovelace that I've read where Betsy was not the main character so I was not sure how I would like it. Happy to report that it was a true delight. To anyone who likes historical fiction, these books are truly illuminating as to what life was like for ordinary girls at the turn of the century (and there is a good sprinkling of historical references).

8/2015I've never identified with Carney particularly. She's so reserved, so prim, so proper and I have never been any of those things. And yet. Her fears, her hopes, her motivations- all pretty recognizable to me.Part of the problem with having Lovelace's books filed under "comfort reading" in my head is that I forget what a good writer she is, how she sees so keenly into people. Coming here for sweetness and finding only magnifying mirrors is more than a little disconcerting.Several passages
