Awww, that destroys all the fairytale vibe Yeah. That was unexpected too. Also the fact that Sophie enchanted the Howl's clothes to break more hearts. Awkward! Now I really don't know what to expect further (what is good, I think) Also Howl's acting really emotionally immature 9n9 P.S. sorry for disappearance. I was really busy with some RL business. Him being from earth was unexpected but it didn't bother me much. Yeah, he's immature but I can relate. Sophie magics stuff without meaning to and she helped to make Howl worse without meaning to. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crypty Scribbles 6,770 October 13 Author Share October 13 Hello, ponies! It's been a while. Btw, I finished the the book and OMG, ending was a mess LOL. @Fluttershutter, I know, you did it long ago. @ExplosionMare, @Clawdeen, how about you, ladies? @Longhaul, are you still in game, man? BTW, the Howl's curse was the "Song" poem by John Donn https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/44127/song-go-and-catch-a-falling-star 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll catch up in a day or two. I agree, the ending was pretty jumbled. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crypty Scribbles 6,770 October 14 Author Share October 14 @Fluttershutter, I'm happy you joined the club. As well as offered such a great book to read ^•^ Maybe the next time it's better to increase reading tempo 9o9 According to your posts I have seen, you are reading many other books in parallel 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crypty Scribbles 6,770 October 15 Author Share October 15 (edited) @ExplosionMare, thank you for honesty ^•^ Of course there's no need to push yourself. I wouldn't finish the book if I weren't interested in it.

I thought it was funny when Sophie used the fairy tale trope about Howl marrying the king's daughter and it turns out she's one year old. And we have one of my pet peeves in fiction: somebody catches a cold by being out in the rain. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fluttershutter 3,396 October 17 Share October 17 Rereading the last few chapters was great because there's so much going on. It's a lot like the ending of a lot of fairy tales. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just like how the characters interact in general, they all get on each other's nerves but still help each other out (except for Howl most times), kinda like a little family! 1 1 Boom!

Yeah, they're a cool little family. And Sophie's reunited with her actual family by the end. Howl can be obnoxious and self centered but he's a pretty good guy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crypty Scribbles 6,770 October 24 Author Share October 24 Hello, ponies. Today is the Day ^•^ All chapters revealed and I may say that I was enjoying reading the book. As well as sharing it with you. Also I lost my jaw when knew that Ms Angorian is the fire demon. Like, what the heck? The Witch of the Waste was snooping around Wales and her demon was just hanging out there? Is it just me or it does really sound random? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howl said the demon was more controlling her by that point so that was part of her setting him up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
