In any case, welcome and nice to meet you. :]
@kidalanna - Hiya! Thanks for dropping by. :3 I'm sure you'll be fine. I've had people claim they won't get points and get quite a few before.
@seito - *laughs* Sounds good to me.

I think I kept missing it. It was insane. Like every library on the island had them checked out! I would have to fly to another one to get it!

@ Rampartte: Ahh, that can get rather confusing. >.<
@ Elegant Feather Duster: You're welcome. Ohs, well, here's hoping I'll be able to acquire some. :3
Point earning games are usually rather fun.
Edit;;
Gah, it appears my parental units wish for me to 'hit the hay'.
G'night everyone, I'll hopefully actually talk to you people tomorrow. ^^

@seito - That's insane. Although I guess it might have been an obscure book until the movie came out. Then everyone was like OHHEY and checked it out. But the libraries didn't have many copies?
@kidalanna - I hope you can too! I like to give out freebies but I also like making people "work" for them rather than post and run. xD

EFD: ^__^ I want to look up that book next then, Castle in the Air. Right now I happen to be reading the book House of Many Ways by Diana Wynne Jones. She put right on the cover of the book that it's the sequel to Howl's Moving Castle. That's the only reason I say it. XD
But Howl and Sophie aren't the main character's, though they did show up halfway through the book, and as I get further into it they become more involved. Calcifer too!

Yeah I knew there was a book so I went and looked it up. Then it turned out it was not only an english writer, it was Dianna Wynne Jones of all people! I then had to order it at my book store. = 3=;; But I got it eventually.
edit - @rampartte - I looked it up. Both Castle in the Air and Many Ways are listed as sequels. Castle is just considerably older and Many Ways is very new (2008). Both have other main characters and just feature Howl and company. :] So we were both right.

Seito: Awww.. I'd let you borrow my copy if you were closer! >_< Mine's so old, we got it before the movie came out, so the edges are yellowed. XD
-EDIT-
EFD: Gasp! The cover lies to me!! XD I guess I'm really reading the triquel! ... er.. what do you call the third edition in a series anyway? Either way, it's a cute read!

Aww but that's when you know the book is well loved. xD When it looks old and you haven't gotten rid of it yet.

@seito - At the time I was surprised how cheap it was *shrugs* Though I don't know, now that the movie is out.
@rampartte - Well I don't think any of them have any particular order. You're only reading the third one (I don't know what the third book is called either...) in the order of when they were written. xD I read the synopsis and I think I shall buy it soon. I still haven't finished Stardust though. orz

@seito - That would be very sad. My memory might be bad, but I think I got a new, paperback version for 8 bucks or something.

8 bucks is reasonable. I have to check the next time I go to the bookstore. I rarely buy books... xD But I will make the exception for Howl.

Unless they changed it, the cover art is amusing too. Calcifer is REALLY f-ing EVIL LOOKING. DDDDDD:
