I Capture the Castle

Anne Frank – The Diary of A Young Girl

Little Women - Louisa May Alcott

Anne of the Island - L.M. Montgomery

I Capture the Castle was definately a different type of book with the way that it seemed Cassandra explained everything in the beginning. I got so much information at one time.

Why did the author choose to write the book this way by giving so much background right away? Is it a certain technique? Is she trying to give the reader a different view of reading?
