Ratings and reviews

My childhood days are revisited with this book! Absolutely captivating. I've almost read all the books in the whole series. I'm starting once again now! Too good to pass by!

I did not buy I am interested in the show more than the books they should sell those on Google play

It may have felt super short but it was interesting to read, and I really enjoyed it, would recommend.
