The summer feels like its flying by already. Susan, I got your letter! I'm sorry I haven't written back before now, but I wanted to wait until I finished The Secret Silver Owl before sending it back to you. You were right. It was just wonderful! I can't wait until her next one comes out. Do you think that she'll have Peter and Jenny end up together or not? I can't make up my mind. Anyway, I'm sending you an owl to return the book, and I've included Hepzibah Harkness's newest mystery. Let me know what you think!
Mum has so busy with the store that I haven't seen her much. Dad says we should be thankful, because it means business on Diagon Alley is picking up again. It was so slow, of course, with Black's epidemic. Still, I wish I could see her more than just early in the morning and right before I have to go to bed.
Daddy finished the testing for the next level of his potion licence. He's decided he's not going to try to test for the one beyond that, though (the level just below Potions Master). He thinks it would cost too it's too much work, and he doesn't need it to work at St Mungo's anyway.
What does everyone think of the newest from Playing Quidditch With Hags? Daddy hates it, and he won't let Chessie or me play it if he's in the house, but otherwise we play it every chance we get. I think they're almost as good as Seven-Eighths Pure. I expecially like the song 'Into the Clear Blue.' Chessie likes 'Hebridean Purple,' but the drums are too loud on that one for me.
I'm missing the food at Hogwarts, I'll admit. I haven't had pudding once since we left school.
