Summary: A Wonderful Start to the World of Fantasy!!!!
Review: I am a 14yo male who lives in Michigan and just last year I was interdused to the wonderful world of Diana Wynne Jones. This is the first book that I read of hers and it sucked me right into her legacy. Consisting of a wizard, Howl, and a young girl. The two of them quickly find themselves thrown into a world of deception, where nothing is really as it seems. I hope that you enjoy this book as much as I did, and that you will find yourself curled up with one of Mrs. Jones prodidious novels, not wanting to put it down. Also, please e-mail if you have any comments on my review- good or bad.

Summary: terrific
Review: I love it esp. Calcifer and Wales, and Howl and Sophie and Michael. The body-swopping was a bit gross. I wish she'd write a third. (someone write me if she has, please!)

Summary: This is the best fantasy book ever!
Review: Never has there been another book like this! And there never will be, either. Instead of a pretty young girl there is an old hag called Sophie that OUGHT to be a pretty young girl if life had been fair. But it's not, and what else can you expect when you're the eldest of three sisters. But maybe Sophie should thank God she's not young anymore, because when she goes out to find her fortune she ends up in a castle with Howl, a Casanova wizard who, according to his reputation, eats young girls' hearts. The reputation is exaggerated, but Howl will do anything to have people believe in it. If they don't believe it, they might think he's GOOD, and then he'll have to do really good and dangerous things. Howl is the biggest coward you have ever found as a protagonist in a book, and Sophie is the biggest bitch. And they're both lovely, as is the whole book. Read it, read it, read it!

Summary: Still my favourite book of all time!
Review: Sophie hatter is one of the best charcaters ever to be created, she is my role model in life. I first read this book when I was about ten years old, I'm now in my twenties and I read it at least every few months. Diana Wynne Jones is the funniest writer I've come across (for children or adults). I adore Calcifer the fire demon...I wish he'd come and live in my fire. If you haven't read this book, you've wasted your life!

Summary: This is My Favorite Book (and I've read quite a few)
Review: Magic, Fairytales, Romance, Mystery, Intrigue. What more could anyone ask for. I'll answer that myself - nothing!!!I am sixteen years old and first read this book when I was around nine. And then I read it again. And again. Considering the fact that I raed around a book a day, it's amazing that this book has stayed so dear to me for seven years. But it has. Read it!!! You won't regret it. The only book that can even begin to compare is Archers Goon (also by Diana Wynne Jones) In fact, I have yet to read a book of Diana Wynne Jones that I don't like.

Summary: I love this book. I wish that I could buy it.
Review: I love this book so much. It is my most favorite book in whole world. As you read it, you can hardly tell that Sophie has been turned into an old lady. My favorite parts are when Howl takes Sophie and Micheal into the real world and when Howl is fighting with the Witch of the Waste. I think that Mrs. (Ms.? I forget.) Diana Wynne Jones wrote a great book.

Summary: My all-time favorite book
Review: Howl's Moving Castle is the best fairy-tale book I have ever read. I first read it when I was 11 and since then I must have read it a hundred times. The librarian told me that since I check it out so much, I should just buy a copy of my own and now it's my rainy-day or whenever I feel like getting away from the world book.

Summary: READ THIS BOOK
Review: This book is my most thumbed book! It is always an enjoyable read, and whenever I just can't find something I feel like reading, I whip out this old trusty! It would have to be my favorite of Diana Wynne Jones books, and she is an extremely gifted writer with so many to choose from... I read this book when I was around 12 and have just turned 20 and read it again, for what must be the 50th time to still sigh happily at the end - BRAVO

Summary: Wildly funny and unpredictable book
Review: Sophie Hatter enrages the Witch of the Waste because of the
way she trims hats and the Witch turns her into an old woman.
Sophie sets out with creaking joints and weak heart to seek
her fortune (and remove the spell). She forces the lecherous and wicked Wizard Howl to take her on as a housekeeper in his
moving castle, where she has to deal with green slime, seven-league boots that always end up in cowpats, love, and a
curse that is actually a poem by John Donne.
