A book that needs some serious fixing: The Mystery of Edwin Drood by Charles Dickens. It is true, that this book needs serious fixing. Why, you may ask. IT IS UNFINISHED!!!!!! So yeah, i need an ending...
Lumos
Creates a narrow beam of light
A book that deserves more attention: Pathfinder by Orson Scott Card. This novel was pure brilliance... and then I discovered that no one else had even heard of it -_-
Nox
Counters the effects of Lumos
An overhyped book: Um... I don't know... Ah ha! Eragon by Christopher Paolini. Don't get me long, I really liked the book, and definitely think the sequels deserve the hype... but everyone made this seem like a phenomenal mind-blowing book... and it really wasn't...
Accio
Summons an object from a significant distance
A book you’re anticipating: Visitors by Orson Scott Card. OH MY GREAT GATSBY, I CAN NOT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the third book in The Pathfinder Series and... I am so excited, I WILL PRE-ORDER THIS BOOK. And I never pre-order.
Alohomora
Opens unlocked doors, unless bewitched

Expecto Patronum

Conjures the Dark Mark
A book you wish to mark as one of your favorites: *cough* TFIOS *cough*Um, I'd say Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein. Because it is genius and heart-breaking and well-written and did I say genius. And the author excepted my friend request on Goodreads! *claps hands*

Used against a boggart
A book with a deceiving synopsis: The Neverending Story by Michael Ende. The synopsis makes it sound enchanting and surprising... it wasn't -_-
Lacarnum Inflamarae
Shoots fireballs

Wingardium Leviosa
Levitates objects
A book you wish to reread: Again... The Fault In Our Stars by John Green. This book is Just. So. Amazing. Please. Please. Read. It.

Legilimens
Allows you to delve into someone’s mind
A book with well-developed characters: *hush, I have only copied 2 books from your answers so far* The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness. It was so good, and so, so sad :( Manchee *sniff*
Levicorpus
A spell that turns you upside down
