The Song of Sunrise by Monica J. DeLoy has arrived and I am unwell! Not only does this book look amazing, but this box full of gifts is incredible!

Song of Sunrise is Book 1 in the Prentice Teller Series and is available now in paperback and on KU! SoS is a dystopian fantasy romance that promises enemies to lovers, found family, and a war academy setting (catch me, I'm falling 🫠) The audiobook is coming soon on October 6, 2026 - I've gotten a sneak peek and it is 🤌🏼!

Check out this synopsis:

"The alliance between humans, elves, and
underlings is beginning to fracture, and yet,
apprentice bard Akemi Nox never expected her
biggest performance to end in a bloodbath.

Fueled by vengeance, Akemi enrolls in a brutal
military academy that trains the most lethal
human magic channelers. There, a ruthless
championship begins, with a legendary relic
promised to the victor. Winning isn’t just a
chance at justice—it’s the only way to protect
what little she has left.

As political tensions flare and an unexpected
attraction threatens her focus, Akemi finds
herself surrounded by enemies and haunted by
the past she can’t outrun. Her only path forward
is through the arena.

To survive, she must win.

To win, she’ll have to become something far
more dangerous than anyone ever expected."
