Dodie Smith is a superstar of writing quotable sentences & paragraphs if I Capture the Castle is any proof. It actually more than makes up for Cassandra's annoying naivety through most of the book and a real uncool move by a character I won't name here.

Plus, uh, the bear incident. Hilarious. Trust me, I'm not giving anything away with that.
