Happy Hump Day Lovelies!! Halfway through the week! You know what that means?!?! It’s almost the weekend and I get to read / relax. Well… that actually happens less than I like. It seems like when I just want to read all these other adulting responsibilities get in the way. Nevertheless, I’m planning on finishing at least two books this weekend cause I desperately need to catch up with TBR. Anyway, time to reveal this month’s Uppercasebox!

Everything All At Once

Katrina Leno

Signed Hardcover of Everything All at Once by Katrina Leno
Everything All at Once Post-It Notes
Pretty Bibliophile Stainless Steel Bracelet (Uppercase Exclusive)
Adorable Golden Compass Bookmark Set of 5 (Uppercase Exclusive)

So I have to admit that I was going to skip/cancel this book subscription for a few months because I’m trying to save up for my upcoming trip to New York. I’ve never been, but I heard it’s pretty pricey so sacrifices have to be made. Well, I got so busy that I forgot. I guess it all worked out because the book sounds really interesting and the bookmarks are just so gorgeous. Also, I really love the bangle bracelet, so I’m declaring this a very fortunate mishap. I also decided that I’m going to keep my subscription a while longer. I haven’t been buying books lately anyway…

Oh and Uppercasebox now has a Loyalty Points Program which can be redeemed for more bookish items, free shipping or a free month of Uppercasebox. How awesome is that?!?

Berserker

(Berserker #1)

Published by Feiwel & Friends October 10, 2017

Genre(s): Young Adult, Historical Fiction, Fantasy

Pages: Hardcover 288

Are Hanne’s powers a gift from the old Norse gods, or a curse?

Her brother Stieg swears their powers are a gift from the old gods, but Hanne Hemstad knows she is truly cursed. It’s not Stieg’s fault that their father is dead, their mother has left, and their brother Knut has been accused of a crime he didn’t commit.

No, the fault lies with Hanne and her inability to control her murderous “gift”–she is a Berserker. When someone she loves is threatened, she flies into a killing state. The siblings must leave Norway for the American frontier or risk being brought to justice.

Aided by a young cowboy who agrees to be their guide, Hanne and her siblings use their powers to survive the perilous trail, where blizzards, wild animals, and vicious bounty hunters await.

Will they be able to reach their uncle, the one man Hanne believes may be able to teach her how to control her drive to kill? With Berserker, Emmy Laybourne, the author of Monument 14, presents her vision of an American west studded with Viking glory.

I haven’t read anything by Emmy Laybourne so I’m super excited to be part of the #BerserkerStreetTeam!!! This book sounds absolutely awesome and I can’t wait to get into it!
