This was a re-read of an old favorite of mine. I'm not usually into romance stories, but the characters and setting of this book are so excellent I loooooove it. (  ) kamlibrarian | Dec 23, 2022 |  I read this years ago and didn't realize I never added it to my list here until a Goodreads friend recommended it. I loved it-sweet, romantic, and laugh-out-loud funny. Kudos, Dodie Smith! (  ) Harks | Dec 17, 2022 | Haven't read this yet; but I really enjoyed Dodie Smith's original "101 Dalmatians," which I picked up at a thrift long, long ago because of the adorable dog illustrations. This non-Disney version of the story is delightfully loopy and quirky, so I'm quite sure I'll like this one too.  KaterinaBead | Oct 8, 2022 | this book is about students future. mehwish_noor | Sep 13, 2022 | Dodie Smith gave us 101 Dalmations. Who knew? I had only ever heard of her in reference to this work, but I’m guessing Cruella DeVille was her masterpiece character. Anyway, this review is about I Capture the Castle, written in the form of seventeen year old Cassandra Mortmain’s diary. It is cute, light-hearted and completely predictable. When I read books such as this one, I always wonder if my younger self would have been enchanted, if she would have been thrilled by the idea of the castle and its avant garde inhabitants. Might be a book that requires finding at just the right moment in life to be loved. Not loved, but liked, for me, so 3-stars. (  )1  mattorsara | Aug 11, 2022 |
 This book was such a wonderful, enchanting and unpredictable read that by the end of it I felt like I almost was Cassandra, since her confessions, recordings and thoughts in her journals gave me a thorough insight into her. I also loved how the sections of the book were arranged in differently priced notebooks, which really demonstrated the progression of the story It feels, reading it now, as if this is the story that every romantic comedy Hollywood has ever made has been trying to tell. And when we come towards the end of the book and a marriage proposal and happily-ever-after storyline seems to be in the offing, I was worried we were going to stray into that territory. But Smith is too good a writer, Cassandra too interesting a person to settle for this. Contenido enTiene la adaptación
Instalada en un destartalado castillo rodeado de abundante naturaleza, los dias transcurren sin sorpresas en la vida de Cassandra Mortmain. A sus diecisiete anos, su familia no es precisamente una fuente de diversion: su padre es escritor, pero no escribe; su madrastra, bohemia y musas de artistas, suena con tiempos pasados; su hermana Rosa muestra uan preocupante tendencia a la melancolia; y a su hermano Thomas no le ven el pelo.
