Howl's Moving Castle

I feel like a humbug giving this beloved book only three stars. I liked the book, but wasn't magically transported like I was expecting to be. I didn't identify with the main character, but liked things about her. I actually liked some of the secondary characters better. I thought the world-building was alright. There were some fun, fantastical happenings, but overall, I wasn't blown away. The prose was very matter of fact, which I guess would be expected of a children's novel. Still, I thought it could have been written with a little more oomph.
