Pretty Books turned 3 years old last week and to celebrate, I want to give you all a chance to win a copy of two of my absolute favourite books, The Fault in Our Stars by John Green and Delirium by Lauren Oliver.

Two people will win one copy of Delirium and TFiOS.

Cook according to package directions, then add our delicious themed toppings.
