Wouldn't that be nice. 'Crazy books this way, please'.
What a joke.
Out of the corner of his eye he noticed another girl attempting to find her way though the shop, more than likely in search of a book. He gave her a polite smile and flattened his back against a bookshelf so she could move past him, before turning towards her as she recommended a book. "They are definately different. The topics of some of the books, I mean. Never knew there could be this many wizarding authors to be all honest."
He cleared his throat and rubbed the back of his neck. "I'm actually hoping to find books that focus more on ... the after life of a wizard. You know how the ghosts wander about Hogwarts as they please and have their own tales of their lives -- and deaths in their case --" he paused deciding whether or not continuing this conversation with a perfect stranger was a good idea or not. Damien never gave so much information to someone he hardly knew.
So the boy simply shrugged his shoulders. "Just sounds interesting, is all," he added, Irish accent flowing through. ”If you think there’s a lot of wizard authors, you should see how many muggle ones there are.” She said smiling. Daisy’s folks were both wizards preferring to stay on the dragon reserve where her mom worked, but as her mom was muggleboarn the family occasionally went to visit their muggle grandparents in Berlin. Last summer, grandmom had taken Daisy to a big library in town and it was about 4 times larger than Hogwarts. She had never seen so many books put together. “Some of what they make up is so outrageous its insane.”
”Well, I imagine,” Daisy replied without missing a beat or blinking an eye. “Books like those would be in one of four categories. “Histories, Biographies, Philosophies, or Theoretics.” She tugged on the strap of her satchel a bit. “I’m headed toward Histories and Biographies myself if you want help.” Ha! Funny, Daisy asking for help – again. The help she had received in Flourish and Blotts hadn’t been that helpful and she was certain the girl now thought she was a nutzoid. At least sourpuss girl hadn't understood Daisy was deviling into the rhetoric behind Vlad the Impaler.
