Another romp of a magic novel, though with some very dark bits. The heroine's response to stress was to ignore everything and read books. I quite liked her.
There were a handful of plot points that were not developed, which I would have liked.

Exactly what I'd expect from Diana Wynn Jones. It's magical, whimsical, and light hearted. There's great descriptions of scenes and characters that really help set the mood for everything. Perfect middle school read!
I've read the Howl Series and would say this is my second favorite. To rank them book 1 is the best, book 2 you can skip, book 3 is fun read.

Unlikeable characters but fun story telling with an interesting ending. Just generally bizarre.
