BookCase.Club is a monthly book subscription box. Every month you’ll receive two handpicked books in one of eight genres. (For the children’s picture book box you’ll get four books!). This is an inexpensive book subscription – less than $15 including shipping per month!

When you sign up you’ll pick the genre. I selected Blind Date, because I love Paranormal Romance novels! They just added 2 new subscriptions – quarterly cookbooks, and quarterly military history.

The first look into my box. There isn’t much to these boxes and they include the two books and then a note/info sheet.  There is usually some packing paper rolled up around the edges to help with shifting during shipping. This month we are back to one paperback and one hardback book.

The inside of the info card has a little blurb about each book and then a note from Melissa. This month they don’t have the book info separated out and just wrote one blurb for both books.

Stars of Fortune by Nora Roberts ($12.40) So of course I have heard of Nora Roberts and I’m pretty sure I’ve read some of her books but they aren’t ones that I think of when I think Paranormal.  This one however is the first of the The Guardians Trilogy and sounds really good and definitely falls into the paranormal realm.

Sasha Riggs is a reclusive artist, haunted by dreams and nightmares that she turns into extraordinary paintings. Her visions lead her to the Greek island of Corfu, where five others have been lured to seek the legendary fire star, part of an ancient prophecy. Sasha recognizes them, because she has drawn them: a magician, an archaeologist, a wanderer, a fighter, a loner. All on a quest. All with secrets.

Sasha is the one who holds them together—the seer. And in the magician, Bran Killian, she sees a man of immense power and compassion. As Sasha struggles with her rare ability, Bran is there to support her, challenge her, and believe in her.

When a dark threat looms, the six must use their combined powers—including trust, unity, and love—to find the fire star and keep the world on course.

I’m pretty sure I’ve said this before but I kind of love when books have a distressed edges to the pages.  I have no idea why some do it and some don’t but it just makes me feel like I’m curling up with a well worn friend.

The Nightmare Affair by Mindee Arnett ($16.84) Another first in a new series by the author. This is the first in the Arkwell Academy trilogy.  This one is more of a YA story and I’m all for it.  It sounds really good and I can’t wait to dive in for a read.

Sixteen-year-old Dusty Everhart breaks into houses late at night, but not because she’s a criminal. No, she’s a Nightmare.

Literally.

Being the only Nightmare at Arkwell Academy, a boarding school for magickind, and living in the shadow of her mother’s infamy, is hard enough. But when Dusty sneaks into Eli Booker’s house, things get a whole lot more complicated. He’s hot, which means sitting on his chest and invading his dreams couldn’t get much more embarrassing. But it does. Eli is dreaming of a murder.

Then Eli’s dream comes true.

Now Dusty has to follow the clues―both within Eli’s dreams and out of them―to stop the killer before more people turn up dead. And before the killer learns what she’s up to and marks her as the next target.

I’m really happy with the selections this month. One is an author I already know and another one that is new to me.  I like that BookCase.Club sends the first in a series or trilogy and they are usually so good I have to jump in and order the rest of the books as soon as I finish the first one.
