GALAXY Bookshop and special guest emcee Annie from Read3r'z Re-Vu are excited to introduce a fresh new voice in middle grade fiction, Raidah Shah Idil, and launch her debut, How to Free a Jinn. Early reviews have praised HTFAJ for its "witty and headstrong" protagonist and authenticity in representing Asian family dynamics set against its "immersive and atmospheric" Malaysian setting.
Raidah and Annie will delve into the story's folklore origins and how Raidah brought a little slice of Malaysia to life between the pages before answering your questions and signing copies of How to Free a Jinn for you.

Seth Haddon immediately wowed readers with REFORGED, the first in his queer romantasy series. After being drawn in by the political intrigue, betrayal, violence and its slow burn second chance romance, they came back for more in REBORN and were not disappointed.
Return to the fantasy world of REFORGED with RECLAIMED, in which a scholar is to be imprisoned for the malfunction of a device he created, that resulted in the devastation of a district in the city. His captor becomes less certain of his guilt and wonder if he's the scapegoat of a larger plot.
As with Seth's previous releases, if you preorder your copy from GALAXY, you'll receive bonus limited edition swag from Seth.
Amy Hutton was a pink-hued sunset of joy in-store and she had a lot to say about her rom-com novels. LOVE FROM SCRATCH is an opposites attract story about a heart-throb actor, the grumpy woman who minds his beloved dog, and the cat that steals his heart.
SIT, STAY, LOVE is a fresh take on the friends-to-lovers trope, brimming with heart, joy and puppies! Sera loves owning a pet shelter – even if it’s often tricky to make ends meet, and her mother thinks she's wasting her life. Thankfully, she can always rely on her steadfast best friend, Toby, who just happens to be the local vet. And then famous actor Ethan James enters the scene...
Natalie Bayley's Bone Rites is the winner of The Virginia Prize for Fiction.
Holloway prison, 1925. Dr Kathryn Darkling, branded The Westminster Vampire by the press, has two weeks until she is hanged for a series of brutal murders. Facing death, she knows that time is running out to complete her mission. Will she find a way to escape her fate? Will she be able to perform the special bone rites that will save her brother?
Register now for our GALAXY READING CHALLENGE.
Each month we'll post a Reading Challenge theme across our socials (Facebook, Instagram). If you have signed up to be a Challenger you can post a recommendation of a GALAXY book you’ve read that fits the theme, i.e. a book bought at GALAXY or a book we sell at GALAXY.
For example, for the theme 'animal companion' you might recommend David Weber's Stephanie Harrington books because of the relationship with the treecats (SF), or recommend Lynette Noni's Graevale with the shadow wolf (YA), or GoT with the direwolves (Fantasy) or a romance where one of the main characters has a pet or familiar. You get the idea.
You get Challenge points for posting your recommendation and why you liked it. You also get points for making meaningful comments on other recommendations - just commenting "Same" on every post to get points isn't what we're looking for!
You can participate as much or as little as you want to, but to keep your eye on the prize, at the end of the year the Challenger who earned the most points will WIN a $200 Gift Voucher to spend in the store or online!
The team at GALAXY are always on hand to recommend something to suit your reading interests. Have a look here at the books that they've enjoyed. Click a bookseller!
