This is the reason why I did this book:
Dragons are great lovers of riddles, and see them as intellectual and linguistic challenges. But remember: dragons will probably know the ancient riddles. So do not ask them the Riddle of the Sphinx if you are in danger, for they will answer it too easily. An angry dragon may be pacified by a riddle challenge-accepting the outcome of the riddle contest. The old master riddlers often used to disguise their riddles as nursery rhymes, knowing that in this way they would be passed through the generations. In this book I have listed some riddles that may be in use in times of need. The rules are simple. Ask a riddle in turn until one of you cannot answer. The challenger goes first. Perplex your adversary and you will gain the upper hand!

Torn Between Two Riddles (RIDDLES x READER FANFIC)
The brother's born of the devil were an inseparable duo, but they were taught not to share... especially not the things they desired. Neither was willing to share her... "hey ____ how are you settling in?" "good! I actually had my eye on that girl over there, do you think she'd be into me?" "Are you insane?! You had to be crazy to mess with her.... she's with the riddle brother's" WARNING: SLOWBURN ENEMIES TO LOVERS STYLE (WITH A TWIST) When two brothers from the wrong side of he!l transfer to Hogwarts, y/n is forced to up her game.

Crimson || Tom Riddle
Tom Riddle had a secret - he had murdered his family. Arabella Chambers knew his secret - she had witnessed it. After Tom Riddle kills Arabella Chambers, he steals her wand for safekeeping. But, unexpectedly, Arabella shows up at Hogwarts, very much alive, and Tom is determined to find out how. ••• Tom Riddle was a powerful orphan. Conceived under the influence of a love potion, he could not feel love. But he wanted to rule forever. He wanted to live. Arabella Chambers was a cursed vampire. She had lost everyone and everything she had ever loved. She wanted to die. ••• "But for some reason, Arabella felt the urge to figure him out. Perhaps that was the only vague, useless excuse she could find to not kill him for stealing her wand, but it was enough."
Reckoning-Mattheo Riddle
Evelyn Pierce was nothing close to perfect in her family's eyes. Her past was something she would give anything to forget about. A boy visits for the summer. A boy from her past. But is Evelyn still sure shed give anything to get rid of her past now? ---------------------------------------------------------------- Ok that description was kind of trash. But my book is good. I'm trying something new. Finished Started: 03/30/2021 Ended: 10/14/2021 They're will be some sensitive subjects so if needed I'll put a TW at the beginning of the chapter if it's really bad. ------------------------------ I kind of make up the story as I go and as a big reader I'm always getting new ideas for my writing so if I go off of a Hogwarts kind of thing don't be surprised. You may notice with the door in chapter V I got the inspiration from the book "Caraval". So that may happen a bit! -FallonRoseComplete
Alice in Wonderland Impossible Thoughts.
This is a collection of poems with the construction of "six lines . " They were written daily during my summer of 2012/13 ( southern hemisphere ) when I was first participating on wattpad as a regular. I posted six poems everyday with a crazy challenge of writing a ridicules number of poems over a short period of time. All the poems are inspired by the Lewis Carroll's classic Alice in Wonderland one of the first books I read as a young person, in fact as a teen. Before the age of 12 years my reading skills where non-existent because of learning difficulties, so when I finally did read a whole book right through Alice was it. So Alice hold's a special place in my heart and soul because of this fact. I hope you enjoy the reading of this failed collection as I do not think I have actually finished this challenge. If someone out there would like to count and let me know, please. How many more poems do I need to write?Complete

Sparks fly and romance blossoms. However Cordelia should have known that falling for him would change her life drastically. A book full of love, secrets, discoveries & betrayal. !! CONTAINS SMUT !!

Swoosh - a book of breezy poetry
Some of the least poetic poems you'll ever read, written by, you guessed it, me! These are some thoughts and feelings that I tried to put into words. I started writing poetry regularly back in January, so the poems in this book kind of tell the story of my life in 2018, since that's when I wrote them (except for the first seven poems, which I wrote in the summer of 2017, plus a few others that I indicate are old). Some of them are kinda random though. Warning: contains whining about my ex, anxiety, being nostalgic, and being very emotional. May cause varying levels of cringing. {Completed November 29 2018}Complete
Evelyn Riddle and the Philosopher's Stone
"If my dad could hear us, you'd already be dead, Ron." My name is Evelyn Willow Jane - or, as most people call me, Evie. I've lived with the Malfoys for my whole life because of one teensy problem - not long after I was born, my father tried to murder a one year old, but the curse rebounded and killed him instead. My dad is Tom Riddle, if you couldn't tell. When I first got to Hogwarts, I thought my experience was going to be average... that dream lasted about five seconds, because then I met Harry Potter, the very boy that my father sought to kill. Crushes, friends, traitors, and a big secret involving Harry, along with Voldemort - this year was going to be hectic. [ book one of the riddle's daughter series ]Complete
