Enter the GoodReads giveaway for Uplift by Jessica Mann. When humans threaten her high mountain wilderness, a bold young bird must rally others to work together to protect their shared home. Born in a spruce tree among a proud clan of Clark’s Nutcrackers, Columbina and her brothers spend long winter nights listening to the elders’ ancient stories and summer days gathering the precious pine seeds their survival depends on. But Columbina’s sharp mind and restless curiosity lead her to question the clan’s long‑held traditions. She forms unlikely friendships with birds and animals beyond her own kind and learns about the Tall Ones, dangerous beings from the south who bring destruction wherever they go. While her family refuses to see the truth, Columbina becomes increasingly aware of the growing threat.
Enter the Goodreads giveaway for Dungeon Crawler Carl by Matt Dinniman. A man. His ex-girlfriend's cat. A sadistic game show, unlike anything in a dungeon crawl, where survival depends on killing your prey in the most entertaining way possible.
In a flash, every human-constructed structure on Earth - from Buckingham Palace to the tiniest shed - collapses in a heap, sinking into the ground. The buildings and all the people inside have all been atomized and transformed into an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot. A dungeon so enormous, it circles the entire globe. Only a few dare venture inside. But once you're in, you can't get out. And what's worse, each level has a time limit. You have but days to find a staircase to the next level down, or it's game over.
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 A Ghastly Catastrophe by Deanna Raybourn.
When a young man is found dead, his body completely drained of blood, in a carriage near Highgate Cemetery, Veronica Speedwell is intrigued. Then a second corpse turns up, staged to look like a suicide, and she and her partner, Stoker, know they’re chasing something far darker. Both victims belonged to a shadowy society so secretive that it barely leaves a trace.
Their search leads them to a Roma boy who may hold vital clues, but reaching him requires help from Lady Julia Brisbane, an old acquaintance of Stoker’s, and her husband Nicholas, sleuths in their own right. As the investigation deepens, Veronica and Stoker uncover a dangerous sect obsessed with immortality. And when a sinister couple draws them into a deadly game, the stakes become more than just solving a murder; they become a fight for survival.
Enter the Goodreads giveaway for The Winter Warriors by Olivier Norek.
In November 1939, just months after the outbreak of World War II, the Soviet Union launched a brutal invasion of Finland, igniting the harrowing Winter War. Vastly outnumbered and outgunned, a ragtag group of Finnish soldiers, farmers, laborers, and young men barely trained for combat stood their ground against Stalin’s mighty Red Army.
At the heart of this gripping true story is Simo Häyhä, the legendary sniper known as the “White Death,” whose icy precision became a symbol of resistance. Alongside him, childhood friends reunite on the battlefield, nurses tend to the wounded in frozen trenches, and entire villages fight to protect their homeland with outdated weapons and unbreakable spirit.
Despite impossible odds, these winter warriors held the line, forcing the Soviet Union to negotiate peace within six months. Their story is a powerful tribute to “sisu”, the fierce Finnish resilience that defies logic and endures through the darkest cold.
Don’t miss your chance to win a copy of this unforgettable tale of courage, sacrifice, and survival.
