this was a very cute and sweet book. i am afraid that i like the movie a little too much and have seen it a few too many times to properly enjoy the book tho as i couldn’t help but compare it to the movie and they are very different. the magic was wonderful and the writing was lovely and it was so sweet to get more of howl and sophie but while i overall liked the book, i fear the changes the movie made strike my heart a little bit more.
