We have 10 copies of Julian Is A Mermaid by Jessica Love to give away to 10 Riot readers!

Here’s what it’s all about:

While riding the subway home from the pool with his abuela one day, Julián notices three women spectacularly dressed up. Their hair billows in brilliant hues, their dresses end in fishtails, and their joy fills the train car. When Julián gets home, daydreaming of the magic he’s seen, all he can think about is dressing up just like the ladies in his own fabulous mermaid costume: a butter-yellow curtain for his tail, the fronds of a potted fern for his headdress. But what will Abuela think about the mess he makes — and even more importantly, what will she think about how Julián sees himself? Mesmerizing and full of heart, Jessica Love’s author-illustrator debut is a jubilant picture of self-love and a radiant celebration of individuality.

We have (are you ready?) 100 advance review copies of My Plain Jane by Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton, and Jodi Meadows to give away to 100 Riot readers!

Here’s what it’s all about:

A comedic and entirely (but not really) faithful retelling of Jane Eyre!

Jane has endured years of hardship and misery, and is ready to embark on a new life as a governess at Thornfield Hall.

Charlotte is an aspiring novelist. (Yes, she’s that Charlotte.) And she’s determined to capture her friend Jane’s story even if it means worming her way into the most epic ghost hunt this side of Wuthering Heights.

And Alexander, ghost hunter extraordinaire, is about to discover something very disturbing going on at a little place called Thornfield…

Reader, there will be murder. Mayhem. And of course, romance. Prepare for an adventure of Gothic proportions, in which all is not as it seems, and a certain Mr. Rochester is hiding more than skeletons in his closets.

Diving into comics can be confusing—sourcing single issues, figuring out where to start with a series, parsing cross-overs and universe resets—so Book Riot often recommends graphic novels as a jumping-in point. We’ve selected five recent GNs that make excellent cross-over material for traditional book readers who want to introduce some art to their reading lives. We’re giving the whole stack away to one reader.

We have 10 copies of The Cactus by Sarah Haywood to give away to 10 Riot readers!

Here’s what it’s all about:

For Susan Green, messy emotions don’t fit into the equation of her perfectly ordered life. She has an apartment that is ideal for one, a job that suits her passion for logic and an “interpersonal arrangement” that provides cultural and other, more intimate, benefits. But suddenly confronted with the loss of her mother and the news that she is about to become a mother herself, Susan’s greatest fear is realized. She is losing control.

Featuring an endearing cast of characters and tremendous heart, The Cactus is a poignant debut and a delightful reminder that some things can’t be explained by logic alone.
