Why read it?
1 author picked Spirited Away, Vol. 1 as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
A Ghibli classic, one of my favourites, and getting to experience the magical and slightly eerily interesting new world that Chihiro discovers, it's a race against time to save her parents.
However, when Chihiro's name is taken and she is forced to stay in said strange world, only the help of a mysterious boy named Haku and a bunch of other magical characters can Chihiro maybe return home. Love love love this book and the film, so I highly recommend it.
From Janelle's list on for gamers.
