Helsinki news


A new update on blogs and the like. Helsinki has continued blindsisters but in a different format. Her new site of everything English and more is http://www.helsinkisheadspace.blogspot.com/

And hey, just because she’s on the other side of the world doesn’t mean we're not connected. See, even our minds are connected in starting our own blogs but them being the same sort of idea. So nyeah!
In other news, if anyone is an anime fan they would know the movie "Howls Moving Castle" directed by the wonderful Hayao Miyazaki who also directed such movies like "Spirited Away".
As usual I was searching through the teen fiction and came across this wonderful tale! How did I not know it was a book before watching the movie?! Don’t ask me because I am ashamed. However I keep telling myself that even though I work in a bookshop, I can’t be expected to know EVERY book that's out there. And besides that. The cover sucks. Tisk tisk to these Australian covers. When I’m a publisher I will make covers so win, Germany covers will look dull.

    I know EXACTLY what you mean my dearest Gilly... I had no idea that 'The Neverending Story' was a book until my friend found it in Borders!
    Hopefully you know what i'm talking about - neverending story - the one with that creepy dragon/dog flying thing?

  4. Howl's Moving Castle used to be my Favourite. Book. Ever. I would read it over and over again. Probably because I was picturing Howl as David Bowie...
