Diana Wynne Jones' Howl's Moving Castle
My brain needed a palate cleanser after those last couple of books, and what better way to wash away dense and sordid philosophical novels than with a story of sisters, magic, romance, and mystery? This book is so funny and sweet and a little bit sly. Sophie, the eldest of three, knows how stories go, so she isn’t even surprised when a witch curses her and her misadventures begin, as she becomes housekeeper to the heartless wizard Howl. I love this book more every time I read it.
