I Capture the Castle

by Dodie Smith
This book was recommended to me by my friend Miss. Not a bad pick at all Miss. But I won't lie, it was a little Pride and Prejudice to me. Wait, is that the Mr. Darcy one? As you can tell, I am not a big Jane Austen reader, but this was a Jane story, but a way easier read. I like it. I like it a lot. I came back to it night after night, which is saying something.
Story about some really poverty stricken sisters that live in an old English castle that meet some more well off western young men. Pretty much all she wrote. The best part of this book is the narrator. She is one of the sisters and wants to be a writer. So the whole book is somewhat of a journal. She is a character. She has a mild, but enlightening sense of humor. I loved her.
I would recommend this book to anyone although it would be a little boring for a younger gal. There is no language and a few very minor references to sex.
If you enjoy a gentle flowing story, this is for you. Enjoy
