Well, this is Disappointing

 

Started reading "I Capture the Castle" by Dodie Smith - author of "101 Dalmatians," which is why I picked this book up.

Kinda glad I started reading it before I saw the trailer for the movie based on the book, because it's a bit soppy:

Also just found out the movie has an R rating, so maybe this won't be one I finish.

This is why, if AI is to be believed:

In a few ways it reminds me of "Little, Big," by John Crowley, another book I started but didn't finish. Like that one, thusfar Castle has been nearly plotless, though at this point it has had more of a plot than Little. While the lack of a plot was a reason to bail on Little, it was the rapes that really sealed the deal. People try to tell me Crowley wrote an epic modern fantasy; I just don't see it. And Castle isn't that far behind.
