I would like to read a book by Diana Wynne Jones, but I have researched and not found any websites. Help?

Question

The book is Howl's Moving Castle. They do not have it at my Library and I love the movie. I have researched google, yahoo, and many other places but have not found any on line library that carry it. Please do not say "Oh no, I can't find it for you because that is illegal because of the copy right," because I know that plenty of people have uploaded movies and they have copyrights too. THANKS SCABS

Answer 1

Try out this website.

or go to a book store website like Barnes and Nobles or Borders.

I read the book myself, and I think it's great.

Answer 2

That's strange.  Her publisher recently released a new edition of the book which can be found in most bookstores.  You're probably better off buying yourself a copy if you still can't find a library that carries it.  

Answer 3

Yes, and when the lawyers find out they are asked to remove such posted items or else face lawsuits.  I've wondered if they monitor places like Yahoo Answers to find such sites so they can shut them down.

Ask your library to borrow the book from another library for you.  It's called inter-library loan. Sometimes there is a small charge for postage but many libraries can do it for free, especially if it's at another library in the system.

Do try that route.  DWJ is a terrific writer and Howl's Moving Castle is a wonderful book.  She has a lot of other good books too; you might like the Chrestomanci series.

Update: I see that you want it online. The same comments apply.  Check with your library and see if they subscribe to an online service which allows their patrons to download books; some do.  Otherwise, check with some of the pay services.  I realize you want it free, which is why I suggested the library.
