He wasn't so sure that there would be another book on a similar subject, but maybe this girl could help.

"Don't think I ever introduced myself either," he finally realized. "I'm -- Damien Murray. Sixth year Hufflepuff and house slacker," he added.
”Sounds,” Daisy paused trying to find the right word to describe his book. “Interesting?” She wasn’t sure how angels could call from heaven considering every picture she’d seen of one, had wings. Wouldn’t they just fly? Or soar? Or float down? She mentally shrugged and put the mustard yellow book back on the shelf.
“Doing research on the author might help – it could tell you where would be best to find the book or what else he’s written or maybe even why he wrote it.” She paused. “Are you sure he was a wizard author? After all, seems like odd subject matter for a wizard, don’t you think?”
She noticed a book put on the shelf backwards (pages out, spin to the wall) and was about to pull it out when he introduced himself. She looked at him from the corner of her eye and was relieved to see he wasn’t offering a hand to shake. Shaking hands was just weird to Daisy. She never fully understood it and so many people at Hogwarts felt the need to shake hands or bow (which was weirder still) when they introduced themselves. She pulled the book out of the shelf and turned towards him. “Daisy Petrus.” She left her house and year off the introduction out of pure lack of thought to include it. ““Damien, huh?” she smiled teasingly as she opened the book to look at the copyright page. “Not big on the studying ‘eh?” Which would explain why he hadn’t thought to look into the author.
