THE BEST BOOK EVER WRITTEN!!!!!
I don't know WHAT you people are talking about. This is the BEST BOOK I HAVE EVER READ IN MY ENTIRE LIFE! I've read it 4 times! It's the first book in the Castle series and by far my favourite! The book was hilarious, well written, the characters were well developed, and the story line was perfect! The movie was good but they over did the romance a LOT. The fighting between Howl and Sophie was absolutely hilarious! I swear there is not a better book out there. You have just come across the BEST book of all time!

GREAT book!
This is my all-time favorite book! The only downfall to it is that neither of the main characters are really anyone a parent would want their kid to act like, so that's why I chose seven and above for the rating.

It was O.K.
It's an O.K. book, but it's waay too short and by the by, there's too many fighting between Sophie & Howl. I recommend the movie than the book. It has a little education and some good role models.

Classic? Perhaps.
This book is great, and while it may be slow-paced at times, the patient reader will be rewarded. The film is also good.
