Enter the Goodreads giveaway for Passage to Tokyo by Poppy Kuroki, a haunting, time-bending journey through love, loss, and survival. Yui Sanada is barely holding her fractured family together, raising her twelve-year-old brother Hiro while navigating the chaos of their mother’s neglect. But everything changes during a visit to Ueno Park, when Hiro vanishes into a mysterious tunnel beneath a samurai statue, and Yui follows him into a Tokyo she doesn’t recognize.
She emerges in 1923, decades before her own time, and Hiro is nowhere to be found. Taken in by a kind family and drawn to a young woman named Chiyo, Yui begins to build a fragile new life. But the clock is ticking: the Great Kanto Earthquake is only weeks away, and its devastation will be catastrophic.
As Yui searches for her brother and wrestles with the growing bond she shares with Chiyo, she must decide how far she’s willing to go to protect the people she loves, past and present.
Enter the Goodreads giveaway for Murder Bimbo by Rebecca Novack, a razor-sharp, darkly funny thriller that flips the script on power, identity, and survival. Murder Bimbo, MB for short, is a 32-year-old sex worker turned reluctant assassin who’s just taken out extremist political candidate Meat Neck. Now, with only two days, a shaky internet connection, and her own cunning, she’s racing to stay alive.
Her lifeline? A desperate email to the host of Justice for Bimbos, a cult-favorite feminist podcast known for championing society’s most vilified women. Through a series of frantic messages sent from a hidden location, MB unravels the bizarre story of her recruitment by a shadowy group of men with code names and questionable motives. As she lays out her case, one thing becomes clear: Meat Neck wasn’t just dangerous; he was a symptom of something much worse. And MB might be the only one willing to do something about it.
Enter the Goodreads giveaway for Refugium by Eric Nicholas. 74,000 BCE. The Toba super-eruption has plunged Southeast Asia into a volcanic winter. In this apocalyptic wasteland, survival lies only in rare, sheltered pockets of land, refugia.
A young primitive man and the remnants of his clan find one such haven: a mist-shrouded forest shielded from the ash-choked world beyond. He is known as Last, the smallest, weakest, and an outcast among his people. His sole mission: protect his eight-year-old brother, the only family he has left.
But when a more advanced human species invades, slaughtering the clan and enslaving the women and children, Last must form a desperate alliance with two dangerous forest hominids, one dwarflike, the other monstrous, to rescue the boy he loves.
Enter the Goodreads giveaway for Academy of Outcasts by Larry Correia. A gritty, high-stakes fantasy where survival is earned, not granted.
Oz was never meant to set foot in the Core City, home to the elite magical academies of the seven realms. He had no magic, no wealth, and no chance. Born into the brutal elemental plane of fire, a world of lava, monsters, and merciless contracts, Oz knew escape was nearly impossible. But Carnavons don’t quit.
Faking his death to break free from his family’s grip, Oz slips through the Nexus gate and infiltrates the Core, ready to rewrite his fate. Everything seems to be falling into place... until he’s accused of trying to assassinate the fire realm’s ambassador.
Now Oz isn’t just an outcast, he’s a fugitive. And the only way out is through the very system that was built to keep people like him out.

Enter the Goodreads giveaway for Crescent Kingdom by Tessa Hale. A story where survival means secrecy, and trust is the most dangerous game of all. I’ve spent my life in the shadows, always running, always hiding. Trained to disappear, conditioned to keep my secrets buried deep. What I can do, who I really am, can never be known. Not if I want to stay alive.
But everything changes when I cross paths with them. A notorious wolf pack with a reputation for vengeance and a history soaked in blood. The fighter who shields me. The Brit who charms me. The hacker who watches from the sidelines. The mercenary who never speaks. The assassin who never forgives. They see through the walls I’ve built, and somehow, they don’t turn away.
They offer me something I’ve never had: safety. A place to rest. A chance to belong. Even if the cost is everything, I’ve tried to protect.
