Holy crackers!!! I solved the riddle?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Are pigs flying?
I find myself completely and utterly speechless. I just…

One moment...

ohmigosh lol ... city of bones was the first thing that came to my mind but I ended up dismissing it. Lol.

Gosh Inno, you totally just went against all you were claiming before xD Well done.

A new riddle is up! Which book title is this riddle referring to?
Hint: The title has two words.
Nelson denied he was one,
Though some may call him so,
Such a word demands perfection,
And an inner sort of glow.
Without bounds or limits,
One can do this, yes they can,
When there is no fear of judgement,
No binds, no confines, no ban.
The bookworm who unravels the book title will receive:
- All Fall Down by Ally Carter
- The Conspiracy of Us by Maggie Hall
- The Darkest Part of The Forest by Holly Black
Please send me a message via Goodreads with:
- Your guess
- Your preferred e-mail address
COMP IS OPEN UNTIL THE RIGHT ANSWER IS GUESSED! GET RIDDLING!!
Best of luck!

Suppose I need to take a load off my shoulders {figuratively speaking}
"What is 4 letters yet is also made up of 3. Although is written with 8 letters and then with 4. Rarely consists of 6 and never is written with 5?! - thought this was interesting
"If you drop me I'll crack, but if you smile, I'll smile back - what am I?"
I loved this one that I found --
"what is deep within you, never dies or gets worn out and only needs some fire from time to time?!"
;)
