7/25: a lark

I've read recommendations for Dodie Smith's I Capture the Castle over the years, but I've worried that it sounded too trying-to-be-clever-and-charming.  Now I'm giving it a go after all, and though it might be trying too much to be clever and charming, I don't care.  It is just so fun.  The perfect book for an end-of-summer-semester treat.
