Howl's Moving Castle is probably my favorite movie of all time and I'm not ashamed to say I could watch it on repeat forever. I had seen the movie (many times) before I read the book and love them both for different reasons. So, let me first explain that I'm a person who likes to watch the same movies over and over again and read the same books several times. I don't know...I guess if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Or I'm just lazy and can't be bothered to find something different. Either way, I often find myself thinking "Ugh! Why can't it just turn out 'such and such' way this time?!" And the thing with books and movies inspired by books, is that it actually does. At least kinda. When I read Howl's Moving Castle, it was like getting a whole new story and it was wonderful.
