Resenhas

Howl's Moving Castle (World of Howl, 1) de Diana Wynne Jones

The beginning of this story had one of the most interesting first chapters. I loved that it poked fun at other well-known fairytales.
Unfortunately, I did not enjoy the rest as much. I do believe that many would love it, but it just wasn't what I was expecting.

Tropes: This book consistantly brings in tropes from all sorts of fairytales thoughout the story.

Content: nothing to worry about

Howl's Moving Castle (Howl's Moving Castle, #1) de Diana Wynne Jones

I saw the movie a long time ago, but I remember liking it quite a bit. The book is very different, but probably even better. The character work is amazing. I couldn't help but love them despite all their flaws, or maybe it's because of all their flaws. I still can't properly explain why is Howl so likable. Magic, I guess. The story is very strong too and did surprise me at times. It has very soft magic, which fits it very well. It's just this magical, fairytale-like world where anything can happen.… (mais)

Mixed Magics: Four Tales of Chrestomanci (C… de Diana Wynne Jones

I have previously enjoyed Witch Week and Archer's Goon but otherwise haven't been heavily into the Chrestomanci books by Dianna.
Was disappointed by Warlock at the Wheel.
Enjoyed Stealer of Souls and The Sage of Theare.

But generally, none lived up to my expectations from my previous Wynne Jones reading.

Eight Days of Luke de Diana Wynne Jones

Fun fantasy linking the old Norse gods to their days of the week. It is interesting to match the modern representations to their days as well as their place in the story. This is not a direct introduction to Norse mythology but might make an interesting bridge for a child.
