California Dreamin’ by The Mamas & The Papas except it’s playing from a box radio while you sit on the porch of a Yosemite Ranger Station in the very early morning. It’s summer. It’s 1979. And you love your job.

when your otp has an honest talk only in dire situations, like when they’re running full tilt being carried by the wind shouting at the top of their lungs

(the movie made this flying thing so romantic, but the book version is basically ‘howl and sophie scream into the wind as it slams them back to the castle’)

Romance the Ghibli way:

Romance the Diana Wynne Jones way:

Howl’s Moving Castle was written by Diana Wynne Jones?  I’m going to have to look for it now.

IT WAS A BOOK???

There’s three books in the universe they’re friccin good my dude

hey guys, op here, dwj’s books are sometimes really hard to find physically so im here to tell you that there’s a free audiobook of Howl’s Moving Castle and its sequels Castle in the Air and House of Many Ways on youtube by jenny sterling, who is a fantastic narrator.

enjoy! and welcome to the DWJ fandom 🙂

In my not at all humble opinion, any library with a YA section worth its money will have several if not many of DWJ’s books (and if my small-town library had them, then, well, I think odds ought to be good in many places).

Don’t let the cave in get you down

Don’t let the falling rocks turn your smile into a frown

When the tunnel is darkest that’s when you need a clown

HEY

Don’t let the cave in get you down
