Enter the GoodReads giveaway for This Time Tomorrow by Emma Straub. With her signature humor and emotional clarity, Straub reshapes the time‑travel narrative into a moving story about a daughter and her father. On the eve of her 40th birthday, Alice feels mostly content; her job is fine, her apartment works, her independence feels steady, and she cherishes her best friend. Yet with her father’s health declining, she can’t ignore the sense that something essential is missing.
Everything shifts when she wakes up in 1996 on her 16th birthday. The shock of returning to her teenage body is nothing compared to seeing her father alive and energetic in his forties. Suddenly viewing her past and present through a new lens, Alice begins to reinterpret the moments that shaped her. As she moves between who she was and who she is, she must confront what she might change, if she truly wants the chance to rewrite anything at all.
Enter the Goodreads giveaway for Gates of Thiros by Lili K. Buckley. Magic is not a gift at birth—it only awakens in the hour of breaking, and Waenia Wyvarian is on the edge of fracture. She carries a borrowed name, crowned with borrowed blood, raised to serve a kingdom that fears her. To survive, she wears many masks, concealing the face they dread, the one revealed once before the court, when a power she could not control came alive.
She had reshaped herself into something useful, and they praised her for it. Nimara’s poise, her grace, her charm, Waenia borrowed them all. Flirtation became survival, a distraction from the truth. Hearts bruised, whispers spread, but she let them talk. Better they saw a girl with a bleeding heart than something unnameable. A queen could not be a god. Could not be a beast. She had to remain human.
Enter the Goodreads giveaway for The Death of Primrose Whittaker by Kerry Chaput. In 1924, Primrose Whittaker is trapped in a life she never chose, forced by her ruthless mother to work as a fortune teller. Haunted by visions and convinced she won’t live past her twenty-second birthday, she braces for the end, only to wake up the next day, very much alive and desperate for change.
Determined to use her painful gift for good, Primrose sets off across Oregon in search of a rumored sanatorium where psychics like her are said to gather. There, she finds a community that helps her embrace her abilities, but the sanctuary is not what it seems. The doctor in charge uses a potent opium to suppress psychic powers, with devastating consequences. As the truth unravels, Primrose must fight to protect herself and her newfound family from a man who believes she holds the key to his dark ambitions.
