Bygone Bookshelf

My culinary reading delights have triped back on ho to my childhood. I recently re-read The Children of Green Knowe which I loved when I was younger and mercifully was rewarded with at least a little of the same magic as it used to engage.

I might note that I have finally gotten my hands on my sister’s copy of the final Harry Potter and am very much enjoying myself as I rack my brains back to the last one and try and forget the numerous spoilers that have seemingly come my way.

It is about the adventure, not the end point.

I am losing hope for poor old Snape though… I was always rather convinced he was going to pull through as a goody. (And don’t you dare spoil that one – either outcome).

I have also sitting on my shelf, The Dark is Rising Series, which I could be very much mistaken has recently (or will be) been made into a movie. Utterly captivating. I love books that toy with enough imagination that they actually provoke a small amount of fear. So I dare say as soon as Harry Potter has been dealt with – on all kinds of levels – that’ll be next.

Mmmm…. and then there’s the coveted copy of Absurdistan that I now own and still haven’t touched!
