Dear Violet,
I wish I was in runes, too, but you seem to have a lot of homework, so maybe not. I can’t believe you took ghoul studies on purpose! It sounds fun, but who cares what dead people eat? Aren’t they just bored and sad now that they don’t eat or need sleep? Dying shouldn’t be so dull, should it?

I don’t know who Manon or Carmen are, but it can’t be that bad, can it? Even if it is in French. You can keep culture to yourself. Unless it’s about real art. I would like to see the museums with all of the old muggle paintings.

Why go to a party where you can dance? That’s silly, but at least there will be flowers. I don’t know what kind of flowers are Titania, but I bet they’re pretty if there is going to be a party about it.

I still think it’s barmy that your parents already picked who you’re going to marry someday, and they aren’t even telling you who he is. What happens if you don’t like him? They will at least pick someone you should like, right? It isn’t going to be French Jimmy Fletcher, is it? Eww. You could always run away and see the world with me after school. Or at least we can imagine.
I’ll give Millie your best. I can’t wait to get back to Hogwarts.

Anne
