This giveaway is sponsored by Tor Teen, proud publisher of Vassa in the Night by Sarah Porter.

In Vassa’s Brooklyn neighborhood it’s easy to stumble into magic, it’s stumbling away again that’s hard. Babs Yagg, the owner of the local convenience store, has a policy of beheading shoplifters—and innocent shoppers. So when Vassa’s stepsister sends her out for light bulbs in the middle of night, she knows it could easily become a suicide mission. But Vassa has Erg, a tough-talking wooden doll with sticky fingers, a bottomless stomach, and ferocious cunning. With Erg’s help, Vassa just might be able to break the witch’s curse and free her Brooklyn neighborhood. But Babs won’t be playing fair…
