But Wait! Are There MORE Hogwarts Mystery Easter Eggs???

Guys! So, we got this comment on our Hogwarts Mystery Easter eggs post today…

Why I’ve Been Shamelessly Fangirling Simon Haynes for Books

Peace Force, by Simon Haynes

FREE for a limited time!

The Undomestic Goddess, by Sophie Kinsella

The Martian, by Andy Weir

$2.99 Kindle Sale! ($9.99)

Accidentally left behind on the first manned mission to Mars, astronaut Mark Watney finds himself marooned on a harsh and unforgiving planet. He’ll have to rely on his training, wits, and the few resources he has at hand–mostly scientific experiments–to try to make contact with Earth and get back home before the planet can finish him off.

Every soul on Earth thinks he’s dead. But he isn’t. Or, at least, not yet.
