We have 10 copies of Cherry by Nico Walker to give away to 10 Riot readers!

Here’s what it’s all about:

Hammered out on a typewriter, Cherry is a breakneck-paced debut novel about love, war, bank robberies, and heroin.

Cleveland, 2003. A young man falls hard in love and gets married—just before flunking out of school and joining the Army. But he’s unprepared for the grisly reality that awaits him as an Army medic. When he returns from Iraq, his PTSD is profound, and the drugs on the street have changed. Hooked on heroin, desperate for a normal life, and running low on cash, he turns to the one thing he thinks he could be really good at—robbing banks.

We have 10 copies of The Forest Queen by Betsy Cornwall to give away to 10 Riot readers!

Here’s what it’s all about:

From a New York Times bestselling author, Betsy Cornwell, a fresh, female-centered take on “Robin Hood” in which a young noblewoman, like the legendary hero, becomes an outlaw fighting for social justice. Perfect for fans of Marissa Meyer and Sarah J. Maas, this smart, gorgeously written take on the Robin Hood lore goes beyond the original’s focus to explore love, gender roles, the healing power of nature, and what it means to be family.

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.

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.
