Howl’s Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones

The Awakening by Kate Chopin

 

The story is about a woman named Edna Pontellier, whose husband isn’t abusive, but he is dismissive of her issues, so she cheats on him. She realizes that there is no place for women in her time to be comfortable with their sexuality, so she drowns herself at the end of the novel. I liked it and thought Edna was a good and interesting flawed character.
