My Daemon

I adored Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy. I only own the first book, The Golden Compass, but I lent it to a friend. The second and third books I borrowed from the library. Now, despite my bank account balances which indicate that I should spend no more "extra" money, I'm seriously considering buying the trilogy to re-read them right now.

I'm in a re-reading kind of mood these days. I re-read all six Harry Potter books before reading the seventh. I just re-read The Left Hand of Darkness (so fabulous!).

It also appears that I'm into magical worlds--somewhere I can escape to. I want somewhere different enough from the here and now as a retreat, a refuge. I want to hibernate inside stories of other worlds, other beings, other times.
