HBL Note: Okay, please excuse me while I boast for a second…but this simple comment made. my. day. When Alexandra’s publicist reached out about Black Canary, she slipped in that Alexandra “listed your blog as a dream media outlet for her campaign!” That’s quite a hook! But even without that SUPER sweet comment, I was excited to share this book with you. Alexandra is a former teen pop singer/songwriter and wrote the music and lyrics to the three original songs in this book…and will even be recording the main anthem! Scroll down to read more about Black Canary by Alexandra Monir.

From the publisher:
Dinah Lance was eight years old when she overheard the impossible: the sound of a girl singing. It was something she was never meant to hear--not in her lifetime and not in Gotham City, taken over by the vicious, patriarchal Court of Owls. The sinister organization rules Gotham City as a dictatorship and has stripped women of everything--their right to work, to make music, to learn, to be free.
Now seventeen, Dinah can't forget that haunting sound, and she's beginning to discover that her own voice is just as powerful. But singing is forbidden--a one-way route to a certain death sentence. Fighting to balance her father's desire to keep her safe, a blossoming romance with mysterious new student Oliver Queen, and her own need to help other women and girls rise up, Dinah wonders if her song will finally be heard. And will her voice be powerful enough to destroy the Court of Owls once and for all?
