I watched the movies first, so I kind of knew what I was getting myself into. Though I must say I enjoyed it even more (even though the movie is one of my all-time favourites)! The banter between Howl and Sophie (and other characters) was so addictive and fun and catching. I wished for a BIT more romance between Howl and Sophie, but it's fine, since I got that in a movie version.
