    Summary

    Neither of them know a whit about this 'living happily ever after' thing--but they'll be damned if they let anyone know that. Still, they're trying their best--despite some distracting questions: Who is sending Sophie suspiciously-familiar-sounding love notes? Is her garden becoming carnivorous? Are Michael and Martha too young to be doing that?
    And why is it suddenly Lettie's business whether or not Howl and Sophie have, in fact, kissed?

    Summary

    After defeating the Witch of the Waste and Miss Angorian, Sophie and Howl couldn't help but get married. Now that the excitement of dead witches and broken curses has calmed, Sophie realizes that she isn't quite ready for all that being a wife entails.

    This is everything I love—father-son relationships, dramatic self-sacrifices, joy triumphing over grief, familial and platonic relations given as much emphasis as romantic ones, and long-overdue conversations. The writing is absolutely beautiful, and this will be something I return to in order to study the prose and plot!

    In his face there is no human pity, no understanding of her pain.

    If there had been, perhaps she would have hated him less.

    Elisabeth has sympathy for Death, once, but it's a long journey to get there.

    Summary

    Annie likes that about Abed: he follows through. He’s solid, but that’s not the whole story. Despite his many routines, his reticence and fragility, he still surprises; he invites his friends to live with him and he turns into Han Solo and he’s able, somehow, to go on day after day in a world that’s not designed for him.
