Come on, you know really angry Sophie with her weed killer! She killed a lot of grass, too.

"Be daffodils in June!!!"

Instead, weed killer in a few hours. She was in a really bad mood.

Everyone was hiding when she came back in. Especially Howl.

Anybody read it?

Howl's Moving Castle?!?!

NOT the movie.

The movie is totally different from the book.

I've only read Howl and it's sequel, but not the third yet.  My brother LOVES her work; she's probably one of his favorite authors.  She's good!!!!!!

Say, Jenni, this could be the official Diana Wynne Jones fan page (Unfortunately, there are very few of us...)! I'm afraid people randomly coming on here would get a little confused by us writing things like "banana cream pies and coat hangers that follow people around" but it's too much fun to give up....

Yeah! Howls pink hair, then green slime and evil spirits, literally "heartless"! Oh, coat hangers that follow people around, you mean that story Polly wrote about that coat hanger that got it's owner in trouble all the time? High Priesstesses invade a funeral, a horse turns into a car, do you get my tomato named Guido thingy?
