House of Many Ways by Diana Wynne JonesWhen Charmain is asked to housesit for Great Uncle William, the Royal Wizard of Norland, she is ecstatic to get away from her parents, but finds that his house is much more than it seems. The sequel to Howl's Moving Castle.
I loved the idea of a house that had many doorways and depending on how you turn, you end up in different places. I couldn't quite 'get' the characters in the book, but the ending ties some of that together. It also could be that I didn't read the first book, Howl's Moving Castle. I would recommend a young reader read the first book to get the feel of the characters in the story.
