Bucking Ham palace looked very swanky.
An antagonist is usually sly and congenial, using the objects/ people around him to suit his selfish needs.
That clerk knew the people were poor yet still he raised the prices of the things in his shop, what a rapacious man!
He stopped at a cross road and stood there, dithering,
"Which way should I go?"
The woman's beauty was compelling.
Every time I see a smoothie I get compulsion to drink it!
The guy that poured orange juice in pot his cereal is very dotty.
My little cousin has a dainty appetite.
The smell of my mothers pumpkin soup was , I couldn't resist coming to the kitchen and tasting it while she wasn't looking.
A strange smell lingered in the cave, but it faded once they got out.
The smell of smoke was emanating from my room.

Foreshadowing is an advance sign or warning of what is to come in the future.
Foreshadowing is what the author puts into the work, the hints about what is going to happen. Inferences would be the way the reader interprets these hints, when the reader sees ideas in the work that are not expressed directly by the author.

" I stuff all my little pets myself when they pass away. Will you have another cup of tea?"
"You did sign the book, didn't you?"
"Oh, yes."
"That's good. Because later on, if I happen to forget what you were called, then I could always come down here and look it up. I still do that almost every day with Mr.Mulholland and Mr..."
"No my dear," she said. "Only you."

"The name itself conjure up images of watery cabbage, rapacious landladies and a powerful smell of kippers in the living room."
" Each word was like a large black eye staring at him though the glass, holding him, compelling him, forcing him to stay and not to walk away from that house, and the next thing he knew, he was actually moving across from the window to the front door of the house, climbing the steps that led up to it, and reaching for the bell."

"And he realized that this animal had all the time been just as silent and motionless as the parrot."
"The tea tasted faintly of bitter almonds, and he didn't care much for it."

I think that the story ends too quickly.
I don't like the ending because I want to know what happens next but then the story ends. So it just
leaves me on the edge of my seat.
