Virtual Event and a TIMELESS Anniversary!

Hi Readers,

I hope this finds you healthy and well! As the new week begins, I've got some fun things to share- starting with a virtual event today! At 7PM EST, the wonderful bookstore RJ Julia is hosting a conversation between me and brilliant YA author Julie Buxbaum. We'll be discussing our new novels, Black Canary: Breaking Silence and Admission, as well as chatting about writing and answering your questions. Click below for more info and to register to join us!! https://www.rjjulia.com/event/virtual...

Something else I'm celebrating is the 10-year anniversary of my debut, the book that made my author dreams come true: Timeless. It's so wild to think that it's been 10 years!! I'm forever grateful to that special book for all the wonderful readers it brought into my life, and for the next six novels that followed in this magical first decade as a published author. Here's to the next decade and bringing you another seven books- or more! 🥂🤗📚

Tomorrow marks two weeks of Black Canary: Breaking Silence being in stores, and what a special couple of weeks it's been! I'm thrilled by the reception it's received, from Kirkus Reviews calling it "a refreshing spin on the feminist dystopia" to New York Times-bestselling author Danielle Paige writing about the book for Glamour magazine, "Alexandra Monir gives us a thrilling new take on this superhero and leaves us feeling empowered and ready to scream with joy." If you haven't picked up your copy yet, I hope you'll check it out! Available now at Amazon, B&N, and indie bookstores like RJ Julia.

As always, thank you for your support. I hope to see you later today on Zoom! 🤗

Pre-Order Offer: Black Canary

To my wonderful readers,

I hope this finds you staying healthy and safe! What a relief it’ll be to soon say goodbye to 2020, and hello to what will hopefully be a MUCH better 2021!! I’m wishing each of you a happy, peaceful holiday season in the meantime.

I’m so grateful for readers like you who give me purpose, and I hope I can contribute to some of your holiday and New Year joy with my upcoming seventh novel, Black Canary: Breaking Silence. This project has been the most thrilling and cathartic story I’ve written yet, and I still can’t believe I got to follow in the footsteps of authors like Leigh Bardugo, Marie Lu, Sarah J. Maas, and Matt de la Peña in writing for DC ICONS! And to make it that much more special, I’ve got an exciting pre-order gift to share, which we are EXTENDING into the first week of January 2021!

Between now and January 2, all who pre-order Black Canary: Breaking Silence from any retailer will receive my pre-order gift pack, which includes a limited-edition poster signed by me and the Eisner Award–winning cover illustrator, Jen Bartel, plus a Black Canary bookmark and a signed bookplate. BONUS: all pre-orders will be entered to win an additional grand prize: a DC Universe deluxe gift basket!

Pre-orders and first-week sales are crucial for a book’s success, and they’re more important than ever now as the pandemic wreaks havoc on our industry. I would be so incredibly grateful for your support. Visit my website to submit your proof of purchase and receive all your freebies + be entered to win the grand prize!

Much love, many thanks, and happy reading!

BLACK CANARY Pre-Order Special Offer!!

Hi Readers!

I hope you're all staying healthy & safe and holding up well during this crazy year. One of the things that has brought me a much-needed distraction in 2020 has been escaping into fictional worlds, and I've highlighted some of my favorite reads of the year in my new Goodreads shelf. I'd love to hear about your favorites too- and I'm excited to bring another new novel your way before the year ends with Black Canary: Breaking Silence! This project has been the most thrilling and cathartic story I've written yet, and I still can't believe I get to follow in the footsteps of authors like Leigh Bardugo, Marie Lu, Sarah J. Maas and Matt de la Pena in writing for DC ICONS!

The book is currently available for pre-order at all retailers, and I have a VERY exciting pre-order gift pack planned for this one! We'll be launching an official campaign for it in a few weeks, but I wanted to give an early preview to my Goodreads family. :) There will be 4 gifts included, and two that I'm especially excited about are: a limited-edition poster signed by me and the Eisner Award-winning cover illustrator, Jen Bartel, plus an exclusive original song written and recorded as a companion to the book!

To claim one of these free gift packs, simply pre-order your copy of Black Canary: Breaking Silence from any retailer, and email proof of purchase (like a screenshot of your order confirmation) to alexandramonirbooks@gmail.com. And stay tuned for more news on this campaign, including the other 2 prizes! :) I can't wait too share this all with you!

Best Wishes & Happy Reading,
Alexandra

THE LIFE BELOW Pre-Order Gifts!!!

To my amazing readers,

I’ve never been more excited to launch a new book into the world than I am now, and that is largely because of you and the incredible love you’ve shown The Final Six! I truly cannot wait for you to read The Life Below and see how the rest of Naomi and Leo’s story unfolds. I put all my heart (and brainpower!) into making this the sequel you’ve been waiting for, and I hope you’ll love reading it as much as I loved writing it for you! ♥

Since this book means so much to me, I wanted to offer something equally special as a thank you for pre-ordering THE LIFE BELOW- an epic gift pack that includes a FREE signed copy of one of my standalone novels and a handful of LIFE BELOW-themed goodies (details on my website; link below). That’s two books for the price of one! The free book is available while supplies last, so send in your pre-order confirmations ASAP to get your prize!

https://www.alexandramonir.com/pre-or...

Pre-orders and first-week sales are the most crucial barometers of a book’s success, just as opening weekend is to a film. If you’re planning to read THE LIFE BELOW, I would be so grateful if you would consider pre-ordering. And if you’re new to the series, the paperback edition of THE FINAL SIX just released, so now is the perfect time to binge-read both! 🙂

After you’ve placed your order, don’t forget to submit your proof of purchase at the link above, so you can receive your FREE book and other prizes!

Much Love, Many Thanks, & Happy Reading!
Alexandra
