Howl's Moving Castle


okay, i just read this book... and i really like it~
the title of the book is Howl's Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones

when you first read the title, you may think that the book might be stories about castle...
but its actually more than that...

this book tells a story about a very talented wizard named Howl..
he was described as a very handsome man with blonde hair who love young and beautiful lady... he is a womanizer who love to make young ladies to fall for him. he only love them when they doesn't love him. but once the girls fell for him, he would just left them alone.. WICKED!
he was well known as wizard Jenkins or wizard Pendragon based on certain palaces.

its also tells the adventure of young Sophie who was born as the eldest among her sisters, Lettie and Martha..
she was born in a family who sells hats. but one day, her father passed away and she have to take care of the hat shop. her sisters, Lettie was send away to be an apprentice at a bakery place and Martha was send to her mother's friends resident to be trained to be a witch because their mother just cant afford to send them to school. at Sophie hometown, Wizard Howl are known as a very wicked wizard who will only be entertained by the heart of a young lady. Sophie adventure begins when The Witch of the Waste who was known as a very wicked witch suddenly come to the hat shop and curse her into an old woman. And the best part of the curse was she cant tell anybody about it.. after that incidence, she left her house and somehow get to live under the same roof as Howl or to make it easier to understand, she get to live in Howl's moving castle as a cleaner lady. there, she met Calcifer, the fire demon and Micheal, Howl's apprentice.

well, you might need to know about The Witch of the Waste because she do have her part in the story... She is a very WICKED witch were once had become Howl's victim... and since that day, she have been chasing Howl to kill him... and she would do ANYTHING just to kill Howl even if it means killing his teacher and threatened his older sister's family.

the story is a good story for those who was searching for a better future. the writer try to describe to not to give up trying for a better future. the writer also want to say that even the most plain person may have their own hidden talent so just be yourself and someone might notice that talent you have. and just like most teenage novels theres some romance theme in it to0~ <3
