Good luck!
The Prophet prints nothing but ill
Of the people I quote with my quill
A bug getting news
Granger outed my ruse
Blackmailed me and told me
to chill
My spell casting skills are quite keen
My library visits routine
I’ve got bushy hair
I’m totally square
I’m the brightest witch
you’ve ever seen
Look, am I really that bad?
I'm less of a jerk than my dad
I played Harry's foil
Just like Crabbe and Goyle
I'm the number one
Slytherin cad
I live out in the woods in a hut
I’m really a bit of a nut
I raise dragons and skrewts
I hang out with brutes
And my mother’s a giant, so
what?

Have You Read This Yet?
Mare Barrow is a prisoner, powerless without her lightning, tormented by her lethal mistakes. She lives at the mercy of a boy she once loved, a boy made of lies and betrayal.
Now a king, Maven Calore continues weaving his dead mother's web in an attempt to maintain control over his country—and his prisoner. As Mare bears the weight of Silent Stone in the palace, her once-ragtag band of newbloods and Reds continue organizing, training, and expanding. They prepare for war, no longer able to linger in the shadows. And Cal, the exiled prince with his own claim on Mare's heart, will stop at nothing to bring her back. When blood turns on blood, and ability on ability, there may be no one left to put out the fire—leaving Norta as Mare knows it to burn all the way down.

Whatever you've heard about Caraval, it doesn't compare to the reality. It's more than just a game or a performance. It's the closest you'll ever find to magic in this world . . .
Scarlett has never left the tiny island where she and her beloved sister, Tella, live with their powerful, and cruel, father. Now Scarlett’s father has arranged a marriage for her, and Scarlett thinks her dreams of seeing Caraval, the far-away, once-a-year performance where the audience participates in the show, are over.
But this year, Scarlett’s long-dreamt of invitation finally arrives. With the help of a mysterious sailor, Tella whisks Scarlett away to the show. Only, as soon as they arrive, Tella is kidnapped by Caraval’s mastermind organizer, Legend. It turns out that this season’s Caraval revolves around Tella, and whoever finds her first is the winner.
