Windfall by Jennifer E. Smith
the colors are pretty and I bought for a really low price plus it's hardcoverrr which I rarely buy due to tightness of budget.

13. What books do you need to read by the end of the year?
The whole Harry Potter series that I plan to marathon and probably to reread Red Queen series so that I can read Broken Throne.
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Harry Potter, #1) by J.K. Rowling Red Queen (Red Queen, #1) by Victoria Aveyard Broken Throne (Red Queen, #4.5) by Victoria Aveyard
plus finish what I am currently reading When Dimple Met Rishi (Dimple and Rishi, #1) by Sandhya Menon <3

14. Favourite book community member (maybe you have one in this group?)
Laura because she's been so friendly in the buddy read and inviting as well. Also, it's amazing how she reads lots of books and how fast she reads them.

That's it, this was fun!
