My New Releases!

Today, March 13, marks the release date for SECRETS OF THE TIME SOCIETY, an exclusive eBook original in the TIMELESS series! This short story reveals lingering questions from Book 1 (**spoiler alert: especially secrets about Michele's father!) and sets up the sequel. I've been dying to share this with the readers, and I'm so excited that publication day is here. Please visit the Random House link below to download from your preferred e-reader/eBook store, and then let me know what you think! :)

The new trade paperback edition of TIMELESS is also being released today. It's an exciting day, and I share it with all of you wonderful readers!

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

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!
