5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book, Jul 18 2005

By	Allyson (Gatineau,Qu�bec) - See all my reviews

This review is from: I Capture The Castle (Paperback)

After reading the latest reviews on Amazon I felt obliged to write my own review.
This is a wonderful book. It reads very easily and the story is a joy to follow. I love Cassandra and her very matter-of-fact love lorn ways. Rose is the character that you want to hate but just can't. All the characters are enjoyable and life like.
Of course, this is a book for younger readers. I still feel it is a very good read for any age. I read it in one sitting and loved every minute of it. I have since re-read it twice and I still love it.
I have heard that this is also one of JK Rowlings favorite books as a child, and that it inspired her to write.
High praise indeed.
Please read it for yourself and don't let those without imagination turn you away from it.

This review is from: I Capture The Castle (Paperback)

okay, personally, i really didn't like this novel. Sorry Dodie, but i just coldn't get past the first 7 chapters...it got really boring. i guess you could say that i shouldn't base my review on only 7 chapters...but seriously, the fact that i couldn't finish the book is the reason why i felt obliged to write down that i didn't llike tho book. i realize that many people loved this book, which is great..i just didn't. thats just me.
