Howl’s Moving Castle
In preparation for the next episode of the Bluestocking Circle Podcast, I re-read and re-watched Howl’s Moving Castle and fell in love anew. It’s been some years since I consumed (hehe, Howl joke) either of these works and I adore them still.
Beauty
Ilia tinted lip conditioner in Pink Moon (Sephora)
I had some Sephora credit and decided to give this a try… it was well worth the impulse. The color is just the right amount of bright berry lip and it’s not too heavy or dramatic for a daytime/work look.

I made a board for the podcast and it is a thing of beauty 🙂

You make me want to read Howl (again). Have you tried the audiobook? I adore the reader (Jenny Sterlin) as long as I have her sped up to normal speaking speed.
I’m almost ashamed to admit it, but I’ve never listened to an audiobook. This actually sounds like a good choice for a first time 🙂 There’s so much of the story I missed the first time, reading it again revealed so many elements I glossed over.
