Wouldn't this be a great book to make a faux box from? And find all the stuff you lost in there: Keys, sunglasses, lonely socks, friends....And I love the cover design. Anyway before you turn it into a box you might want to read the book first, because it's lovely. It's a kind of magical, creepy, strange, modern fairytale for grown ups. The writer John Connolly is more known for his thrillers but I wished he would write more books like these!
The little delft dutch girl and boy kissing picture on your side bar was our cake topper for our wedding cake 26 years ago. I have a delft blue collection!
ReplyDeleteI have a tiny collection too: a vase (inherited from grandmother), a house (got it free from KLM-dutch airline) and a Stroopwaffle jar, which I used in the draw of the give away :D
ReplyDeleteA book full of lost things - a very Harry Potter-ish idea!
ReplyDeleteI love the cover of that book.
hmmmm, now i'm off to see if our library has that book. and yes, the cover is wonderful (i hope that the inside is as good!).
