    Quite possibly the highest quality book shipment I have ever received. Amazon could learn a lot from Dunkin! My book was still wrapped in cellophane. So, a new book just as described and as pictured. Plus it was wrapped in foam and shipped in a fresh, clean box the very next day after I purchased it. Not only did the Dunkin Bookstore offer the book for a great value, but I would consider their customer service excellent as well. Highly recommended seller!

    Item arrived well packed and as described at the best price I could find. Shipping got a little screwy; tracking info was provided, cancelled and then provided again a few days later. Package arrived a day past original estimate. Over all a positive experience, would do business with these folks again.

    Perfect purchase! This is a wonderful Seller! I received my books ahead of schedule. They were packed in a very sturdy box that fit the books like a glove. When I give a positive, 5 star rating, I look for three things : 1. Did the item arrive on time? 2. Was it packed carefully, to arrive as undamaged as possible? 3. Was the item exactly as described? The books were still wrapped in their shrink wrap and were perfect. You won’t have to worry about this Seller’s reputation. It is spot on!!!

    Howl's Moving Castle is an enchanting story, rather like fairy tale.

Sophie goes on a journey to break the spell, she is under. On Sophie's journey she meets Howl. Howl's the powerful wizard that can break Sophie's curse.

Howl's an sly, selfish, cowardly, and as vane as a peacock and you can't pin him down to anything. But with a plucky women like Sophie Howl had no chance, he had help her. In the end Sophie does not need to be saved by Howl because ...

    Best cover

    I did not like the book at all, all the things i liked about the movie was removed from the book and a hundred unneccecary things were added. The cover, however, was absolutely stunning and makes me want to display the book in my house had it not been such a stinging reminder of how wrong the book was to me.

  • Used Howl's Moving Castle

    The book arrived quickly. It's a used book so wear/use was expected. The story itself is light hearted and fun. It is different than the movie but still entertaining. It fills in a few holes/questions the movie leaves you with.

  • Movie is better

    This book is written for a third grade reading level. It has cute parts, but I think the film makes the characters a bit more likeable. That being said, I'm still glad I read this book. It's always fun to see the differences of film and book.

  • Best book ever

    The quality was better than expected, and as always I love this book. If you enjoy the Studio Ghibli version, you've got to read the book too!
