A friend of mine, Shawna, sent me a wall decoration as my birthday gift. I was struck when I unwrapped the package, because I’d just seen a similar thing painted on the cover of Ayu Utami‘s latest book, Bilangan Fu. A friend told me that it’s a Greek protection charm. Looking at the appearance, could it be a charm against evil eye?
Am trying to read all books there are in Joan Aiken‘s James III/Wolves Chronicles saga. I still need to buy Black Hearts in Battersea, The Stolen Lake, The Witch of Clatteringshaws and Dido and Pa and to complete my reading. I’ve read Is and Cold Shoulder Road when I was younger; my sister borrowed them from the school library, but now I want to have my own copies too. Wait, is The Whispering Mountain part of the saga too? Woah! I saw a copy in PIM, I have to buy it.
So far I’ve read Midwinter Nightingale, The Cuckoo Tree, and Night Birds on Nantucket. Am reading The Wolves of Willoughby Chase, and Limbo Lodge is waiting on my bedstand.
