Love Charms And Other Catastrophes - Plot & Excerpts
When she wasn’t charm-making, the hours she spent at school dragged. Nothing a teacher taught or a friend said distracted her for long. When Saturday arrived, she breathed a sigh of relief before her stomach immediately twisted into new and tighter knots. “Finally,” she almost sobbed, ducking her head under the sheets. “It’s finally today.” August had quietly given up its crown to September, which meant that cooler weather was on the way. Hijiri searched her limited closet with that in mind. Unlike Fallon, who had strong opinions about things like polyester and thread count, Hijiri never gave much thought to her clothing. She shopped for clothes only when her old ones had gotten stained from her crafting; searching through racks of sweaters and jeans was more of a chore than a fun activity. Her mother had picked out some tasteful outfits for her, though. The ones she only wore for special occasions. Hijiri decided on one of those: a soft plum blazer over a black elastic-waist dress.
