Lydia, have you read Howl's Moving Castle?

It's kinda a Beauty & the Beast story. There's magic, wizards, elementals, hilariousness. It's a Diana Wynne Jones. Take a look: Howl's Moving Castle

Do you have a library nearby? That's where I got it.

It's a book? I've seen the Studio Ghibli film and thought it was pretty good. Especially given the fact that Christian Bale plays Howl in the English dubbed version.

@Batman, yes, it was originally a book. I've not seen the movie yet, but I'm trying to find it somewhere. The fact that Christian Bale AND Josh Hutcherson voice characters, makes me more eager to watch it.

Okay.

Yes. Josh Hutcherson voices a minor character.

I wanna buddy read :)

What kind of books do you have around, Bryce? My sis is going to the library tomorrow, so if I don't have it she might be able to pick it up.

Any good fantasy/fiction books good for teens are fine by me :)

Okay. Have you read the Ranger's Apprentice series?

nope.

What are your interests?

Bryce wrote: "nope."

Well, can you get it from the library? My sis is going today, so I can have her pick it up for me.

I know that name, but the name is all I know.

I know he was in the former, as Miracle Max.
He's also the voice of Mike Wazowski in Monsters Inc. and Monsters University.

Well that would be why I know the name! Yes, I have seen the Princess Bride, but Robin Wright and Mandie (can't remember) are the only actors names that stuck with me. Mum would be horrified if she saw this admission. ;)

I'll get it tomorrow. At home now. I'm going to library tommorow :)

Lydia - :P

Bryce - All right. She's grabbing it for me...if it's in. Fingers crossed.

Bryce, were you able to get the first Ranger's Apprentice book?

Erudessa- Not yet

Erudessa- Sorry. Im going to try to get it tommorow

Okay. That's all right.

How 'bout you, Lydia, were you able to find Howl's Moving Castle?

*gasp* Just kidding! I can renew it.

Okay! I'm ready when ever you are!

Sure! Okay.

I think I'd enjoy a reading partner! This is what I read if anyone is interested: I'm not interested in reading magic, vampires, explicit content, swearing, or LGTB+. I know maybe that sounds like there isn't anything left to read then but I really want a reading partner so long as there isn't any of that. There are a lot of good books still out there!
Let me know if you're looking for a reading partner! :)
