Howl's moving castle by Diana Wynne Jones I am quite shocked with myself that I hadn't read this book before now but I am so, so glad that I have now. It is a classic. It is a classic fantasy which has obviously been an influence of so many of my favourite contemporary books and it is fabulous in every way! The story is that of the first born Sophie who is put under a curse so she ends up seeking the help of Howl, an enigmatic wizard in his moving castle and discovers that nothing is ever what it first seems. This book is fast paced with loveable (and bizarre characters) and so many twists and turns! For those that love a classic fantasy this is the book for you! Great for: magic and unexpected happenings Not great if: you are scared of scarecrows or talking sticks Why not support your local independent bookshop and buy your copy here If you would like to know more about Diana Wynne Jones and her wonderderful books click here
