My least favorite of the Castle books, which still means that it's quite a good book. Sophie, Howl, and Calcifer are here, of course, and for much more of the book than they had been in Castle in the Air. They steal every scene they're in from Charmain, the newly introduced lead character.Charmain i...
Oops, I had planned to reread Howl's Moving Castle and didn't realize this was a sequel until after I started listening to it. Sophie and Howl are secondary characters in this cute semi-Mary Sue story of a young woman house-sitting for a great-uncle wizard. The house is delightfully weird and so i...
I checked out the wrong book. I really wish books in a series would be clearly labeled. I only want to read them in order. I'm chronological like that. *** My favorite of the Castle series. Charmain is a young woman I can strongly identify with, her desire to read and her ignorance of useful domesti...
DWJ Book Toast, #8Diana Wynne Jones is one of my favorite fantasy authors, growing up and now, and I was saddened by the news of her death. I can't say I'm overcome with emotion - as personal as some of her work is to me, its not like I knew her after all - but I wish I could put into words how I fe...
I read this at lightning speed after I bought it, and I did enjoy it immensely--but even though it's touted as a direct sequel to Howl's Moving Castle, Howl & Sophie figure in about as prominently as they did in the other sort-of-sequel, Castle in the Air. I still liked this book better because of ...
I just finished this and I enjoyed it tremendously. I cant say I thought the main Chrictor was all that nice but I still appriiated her groth and all of the magic.
Some YA rises above its target audience; this one didn't. It was a competent book, and I think I would have enjoyed it a lot as a 12-year-old, but as an adult I was frustrated by how easily everything happened right on cue. The biggest challenge the protagonist had to work through was overcoming her...
Only read it as it was a sequel to Howl's Moving Castle. If it wasn't for Sophie and Howl, and Calcifer and their son, I would probably never have finsihed the story. It dragged. It wasn't particularly engaging.
Este no es un libro perfecto. Tiene 5 estrellas porque amo el universo de esta trilogía. Amo que el segundo y tercer libro no sean secuelas directas de Howl's Moving Castle, sino que ocurren en el mismo mundo y tienen cameos de personajes que conocimos anteriormente, pero también son historias inter...
