Howl Moving Castle

Hello everybody this is the last post for this anniversary month and I'm going to unveil one ofmy favourite book it is called Howl Moving Castle.To young reader you probably won't recognize since it was a book almost 25 years ago but to the one who watch the movie(yes the movie by Studio Ghibli)you might be familiar with it.Howl Moving castle is a book written by Diana Wynne Jones(one of my favourite author)It was published in 1986.It is the first book of the series.

The good
.Smart and charming characters.
.a great and funny story.
.Great cover and illustration
(I know what you're thinking I've just said this is one of my favourite book of all time but that all I can say well to me the book is too good for words)

The bad
.The ending feels a little weak.

Quick summary
Sophie Hatter is the eldest of the three so she is doomed to fail(rumour) after her father died she had to work in her father hat shop there she meets a woman who starts asking strange question after Sophie managed to make the woman turned Sophie into an old woman(she was actually the Wicked Witch of the Waste) and she cannot tell people that she is under a spell unless they already know about it.So she deciced to seek her fortune by going to Howl(a wiard rumoured to take souls of young women)since she has nothing tolose............................That's all I can say.

The conclusion
Howl Moving castle is avery awesome book 4 years ago I read a book at least one in 1 month but when I read howl Moving Castle I fell in love with reading.I mean with Great and fun story,Excellent cast character,I have read the book more than 20 times and I will still enjoy it when I read it the next time.Just saying if you do buy this book and don't like it(just incase) don't come complaining to me since this is just my opinion but I think you will enjoy it.

Rating:10 out of 10(I hoped I could have given it an 11 but rules are rules)

Mary Quinn A Spy in the House

Hello everybody welcome to the next post of the book that deserved a ten this time I'm reviewing Mary Quinn A Spy in the House.It is a three part series(I think).It is written by Y.S Lee and it was published in 2009.

The good
.Great cast of characters
.A smart and charming story
.Great cover

The bad
.There's really any flaw that I can find in this story except perhaps hope the story would will be more mysterious

Quick summary
Mary Quinn a twelve years old girl is sentenced to go to jail but before that she is saved by a woman who takes her to Ms scrimshaw academy for girls(a special designed school that takes talented girls to be independent)since Mary doesn't has anywhere left to go she decide to stay.Now we skip 5 years Mary now is 17 years old she............that's all for now.

The conclusion
Mary Quinn A Spy in the House is an amazingly entertaining book.It is filled with great characters a smart and fun story and a truely good book to read again so what can I say any more.

The Night of the Solstice

Hello everybody this month is a very special time it is the first anniversary of my blog like I said before I will write about three books that I have given a 10.(since I made this blog the only book that receive a ten was William S The Great Escape) the first one is The Night of The Solstice.It is written by L.J Smith.It is the first book of the two part series.

The good
.Smart and funny characters
.The story focuses on all the brother and sisters.(which is very good since sometimes some characters in a book doesn't appear very much)
.I really liked the cover.

The bad
.I hoped it had a better ending(it wasn't bad but I just hoped the book had a better ending

Quick summary
When Claudia met a talking fox that ask her to quickly bring her brother and sister to the mysterious house,she quickly does so there they learned that the house belonged to a powerful sorceress named Morgana she is the only key between the gate of our world and the magic world when she was captured the vixen...................that's all I can say if you want to know more read the book.

The conclusion
The Night of the Solstice is a really great book it has brilliant smart characters and a great story it is really fun book to read while their adventure wasn't what can we actually call epic but it is a charming book that is will captivate you if you're not looking for something adventerous that is.
