"I am an incredibly fussy reader who is regularly disappointed by books that fail to live up to their promising blurbs. Imagine my surprise when I’m a third of a way through a book with such a pretty cover and an intriguing premise and I’m still reading!
Seriously though, love the cosy vibes and fleshed out magical world of this novel. And the writing is, at times, as pretty as the cover." — Oct 05, 2024 10:47AM

“Hanged"
I hung myself today. Hanged? Whatever,
the point is I hanged myself today and I’m still
hanging.
I feel fine. Just bored. I keep hoping that
someone will come home and cut me down
but then I keep remembering that if I knew
someone like that I wouldn’t be up here. Bit
ironic, right? Or is that not ironic? I read
somewhere that, like, anything funny is,
in some way, ironic. But I don’t know if it's
funny or not. I don’t think my brain owns
“funny”, you know?
I feel taller. I like that.
I’ve never been away from my shadow for
this long. It had always clung to my feet,
parting momentarily for a quick dive into
the swimming pool. But never for five
hours. I like it. There’s three feet of space
between my two and the floor.
I wanted something this morning. I may be
stuck. But at least I’m three feet closer to it.”
