1. Störst av allt

|
De rikaste rika och de mest utsatta behöver sällan träffas. Utom i Djursholms allmänna gymnasium. Fem tonåringar, och en lärare som vill väl. Det slutar i katastrof. Nio månader senare ställs artonåriga Maja inför rätta. "Jag vet inte hur jag ska orka lyssna. Men det är farligt att släppa på koncentrationen. För då kommer ljuden. Ljudet när de kom in i klassrummet och drog bort mig, ljudet när Sebastians skalle föll i golvet, det lät ihåligt. Det dånar i mig, så fort jag inte passar mig kommer det tillbaka. Jag pressar naglarna in i mina handflator, försöker ta mig därifrån. Men det hjälper inte. Min hjärna släpar alltid tillbaka mig till det där j***a klassrummet." Störst av allt är en stenhård rättegångsthriller, ett inkännande porträtt av en ung människa och en svidande vidräkning med ett samhälle som obönhörligt håller på att glida isär. Ett drama som väcker frågor om skuld och ansvar, straff och försoning. Omslagsformgivare: Miroslav Sokcic |

How exactly has one good deed landed me in the penalty box? Ice Knights defenseman Zach Blackburn has come down with the flu, and my BFF—his PR manager—begs me to put my nursing degree to use and get him back to health. Of course she would call in a favor for the most hated man in Harbor City. But when he’s finally on the mend and I’m sneaking out of his place, everything goes sideways. Paparazzi spot me and pictures, plus accusations that I slept with him, fly faster than a hockey puck. At first, all of Harbor City wants my blood—or to give me a girlie-girl makeover. But then…the team finally wins a game. And now this fickle town wants me with the big jerk twenty-four seven. Argh. I never slept with him the first time! But no one will listen. Then the grumpy bastard goes and promises to break his no-fan-appearances rule to help raise money for a free health clinic—but only if I’m rink-side at every game. That’s not a deal I can turn down. But when the team keeps winning, and I realize there’s more to him than his bad reputation, suddenly remembering to keep my real hands off my fake date gets harder and harder to do.

"Jag sträckläser denna bok. /.../ En djupt fascinerande skildring av religion, våld och identitet och hur Tara Westover skapar sig ett eget liv utifrån ett existentiellt nolläge." Nina Asarnoj, SR "En enastående memoar" Barack Obama "Westover undersöker sin barndom med avväpnande klarsyn och, än mer förbluffande, med nyfikenhet och kärlek, till och med gentemot de som har svikit henne." The New Yorker En förvandling så modig, så genomgripande, att den trotsar all beskrivning. Financial Times Allt jag fått lära mig har rosats av kritiker över hela världen, låg etta på Barack Obamas sommarläslista 2018 och översatts till 26 språk. Den är en gripande skildring av en ung människas strävan efter kunskap, om att formas som människa, om familj, lojalitet och självförverkligande. Boken är den amerikanska författaren Tara Westovers internationella bästsäljare om en uppväxt där hon lär sig att förbereda sig för domedagen istället för att plugga matte och historia och umgås med andra barn. Hennes storebror blir den som kommer hem med nyheten att det finns en annan värld bortom gården en värld som kan ge henne ett helt annat liv. På en gård vid bergets fot i Idaho bor Tara Westover med sina föräldrar och sex syskon. På somrarna hjälper hon sin mamma att koka örter och på vintrarna arbetar hon i sin pappas skrotverkstad. När hon får ett stålrör genom benet, eller när hennes storebrors ben börjar brinna, åker familjen inte till sjukhuset, hennes mamma behandlar såren med örtomslag. Familjen är mormoner och survivalists de lever helt avskärmade från samhället. Tara är 17 år när hon för första gången sätter sin fot i en skola. Hon har aldrig hört talas om Förintelsen, Kennedy, Martin Luther King. "Denna välskrivna självbiografi är en riktig bladvändare ... Det här är en bok som alla bör läsa, även tonåringar på väg mot sin utvecklingsresa." BTJ |

Lachlan: 365 days I’ve wanted Beth beneath me, begging for release. One long, angst-filled year we’ve circled each other, keeping things strictly professional. But I’ve also got stuff in my past that complicates relationships. And I should know better than to hope secrets can stay buried. Hugh: A year? Try ten. A decade ago, I let Lachlan walk away because deep down, I knew he needed something else. As soon as I laid eyes on her, I understood what I was up against: he loves Beth. Looks at her in a way he’d never look at me. I get it. Curvy, smart, and bossy? I just might love her, too. Beth: Two men. Two first dates. Two first kisses…  But this doesn’t feel like a love triangle.  Oh no. It’s much more complicated than that. I’m not complaining. I’m game for anything. I just have one rule: we don't tell anyone. SECURITY BRIEFING: * Warning: there are no limits to these Mounties’ willingness to please * Never underestimate the strength of a woman * Sometimes the past can come back and bite you...if you're lucky * Top-secret clearance means three doesn’t need to be a crowd |

10. Bilderbergmötet
|
|||
|
"En internationell thriller som utspelar sig i det lilla fiskesamhället där konsekvenserna av händelserna under några dygn rör hela världen." Det är försommar i Stockholms skärgård. En svag bris drar in från havet. Den före detta operatören inom militära SSI, Anton Modin, har lagt av och dragit sig tillbaka för att fiska eller bara ta det lugnt. Men något märkligt händer på hotellet i det lilla kustsamhället. Det fejas och fixas men ingen information slipper ut. Säpo syns på orten och även utländska säkerhetstjänster. Det är först när Modin känner igen två israeliska säkerhetsagenter som han reagerar. Någonting mycket känsligt kommer äga rum på hotellet den här sommaren. Den hemlighetsfulla Bilderberggruppen  håller ett toppmöte varje år. Det har fyra gånger tidigare hållits i Sverige. Förutom det spännande dramat får du reda på hur ett sådant toppmöte med världens mäktigaste planeras och utförs i form av säkerhetsarrangemang, logistik och deltagarlistor. Vad är det som planeras inom Bilderberggruppen som vi inte får ta del av? Bilderberggruppen som av många anses styra världen informellt. Är det en kommande världsregering som skapas? Bilderbergmötet är en fristående fortsättning på de tre tidigare böckerna om den före detta underrättelseoperatören Anton Modin. Författaren ANDERS JALLAI är en ledande skribent i underrättelse– och säkerhetsfrågor. Han har en bakgrund som yrkesmilitär i flera befattningar, bl a stridspilot och kustjägare. Se mer: www.jallai.se Om Jallais tidigare böcker i serien: "Rasande skickligt skrivet!" (Fyra getingar i Expressen/GT) "Jallai – en svensk Forsyth – men bättre." (F.E.T. Helsingfors) "Inte bara trovärdigt – det är sannolikt." (Olof Frånstedt, f d OP-chef Säpo) "I samma anda som Guillou – fast bättre!" (Steffo Törnquist, TV4 Nyhetsmorgon) "Spännande och trovärdigt." (Sydsvenska Dagbladet) ”Ovanligt spännande spionthriller.” (Vivian Gustin, Kulturmagazinet Kulturbloggen) ”Anders Jallais böcker om Anton Modin bygger på hans egna erfarenheter från yrkeslivet men också på den omfattande research kring svenskt underrättelseväsende som han bedrivit i flera år. Självklart är böckerna fiction, men samtidigt vilar de så mycket på Jallai:s kunskaper att de mer kan betraktas som tillåtna och nödvändiga spekulationer om sådant den vanliga medborgaren inte känner till men borde få insyn i.” (Gunnar Wall, journalist och författare) ”Tillsammans med liknande serier av Jan Guillou och G. W. Persson utgör det här gräddan av svenska thrillers på senare tid. Anders Jallai vet och kan mycket. Hans enorma erfarenhet som stridspilot, attackdykare mm plus det faktum att han medverkat vid hittandet av den försvunna DC-3:an gör hans thrillers mer än trovärdiga. Jag kan knappt bärga mig innan jag får hans nästa thriller mellan mina händer. Tack, Anders Jallai för läsupplevelser av högsta karat!” (Iwan Morelius, Svenska Deckarakademin) ”Det är action. Det är hårdkokt, jag finner influenser från amerikanska författare i genren. Kvinnor förekommer, men bara i begränsad omfattning, och kanske lite väl ofta som sexualobjekt. Alkoholen flödar, det dricks även om man ska köra bil – bara det inte finns en polis i närheten. Sensmoralen är kanske tveksam, men vad gör det när spänningen är på 100 procent. Det här en bok om män, för män – om ni förstår vad jag menar. Anders Jallai är en av Sveriges allra bästa på att skapa den här typen av dramatik.” (Nisse Scherman, DAST Magazine) ”Anders Jallai kan i dagsläget som författare närmast jämföras med John le Carré och Fredric Forsyth. / --- / Han är en god stilist och kan verkligen trollbinda läsaren.” (Mats Garme, Ölandsbladet) |

15. The Praise Singer
|

|
In the story of the great lyric poet Simonides, Mary Renault brings alive a time in Greece when tyrants kept an unsteady rule and poetry, music, and royal patronage combined to produce a flowering of the arts.  Born into a stern farming family on the island of Keos, Simonides escapes his harsh childhood through a lucky apprenticeship with a renowned Ionian singer. As they travel through 5th century B.C. Greece, Simonides learns not only how to play the kithara and compose poetry, but also how to navigate the shifting alliances surrounding his rich patrons. He is witness to the Persian invasion of Ionia, to the decadent reign of the Samian pirate king Polykrates, and to the fall of the Pisistratids in the Athenian court. Along the way, he encounters artists, statesmen, athletes, thinkers, and lovers, including the likes of Pythagoras and Aischylos. Using the singer's unique perspective, Renault combines her vibrant imagination and her formidable knowledge of history to establish a sweeping, resilient vision of a golden century. |
16. Midnight in Chernobyl
|
|||
|
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Journalist Adam Higginbotham’s definitive, years-in-the-making account of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant disaster—and a powerful investigation into how propaganda, secrecy, and myth have obscured the true story of one of the twentieth century’s greatest disasters. Early in the morning of April 26, 1986, Reactor Number Four of the Chernobyl Atomic Energy Station exploded, triggering history’s worst nuclear disaster. In the thirty years since then, Chernobyl has become lodged in the collective nightmares of the world: shorthand for the spectral horrors of radiation poisoning, for a dangerous technology slipping its leash, for ecological fragility, and for what can happen when a dishonest and careless state endangers its citizens and the entire world. But the real story of the accident, clouded from the beginning by secrecy, propaganda, and misinformation, has long remained in dispute. Drawing on hundreds of hours of interviews conducted over the course of more than ten years, as well as letters, unpublished memoirs, and documents from recently-declassified archives, Adam Higginbotham has written a harrowing and compelling narrative which brings the disaster to life through the eyes of the men and women who witnessed it firsthand. The result is a masterful nonfiction thriller, and the definitive account of an event that changed history: a story that is more complex, more human, and more terrifying than the Soviet myth. Midnight in Chernobyl is an indelible portrait of one of the great disasters of the twentieth century, of human resilience and ingenuity, and the lessons learned when mankind seeks to bend the natural world to his will—lessons which, in the face of climate change and other threats, remain not just vital but necessary. |

18. The Robe
|

|
This collector's edition is cleanly formatted for easy reading. 12 point Garamond, 1.15 spacing. Marcellus, a Roman soldier, ends up with the task of participating first hand in the crucifixion of Jesus. In order to numb himself from the reality of what he is doing, he gets drunk, gambles for and wins Christ's Robe. This is the story of where the Robe and his involvement in this event lead him. Through his eyes we experience the era and the full effect of Christ's crucifixion, bringing us to the heart of Christianity. The Robe is a timeless classic. It is a story filled with adventure, love, faith, spirituality and redemption. "This faith, is not like a deed to a house in which one may live with full rights of possession. It is more like a kit of tools with which a man may build himself a house. The tools will be worth just what he does with them. When he lays them down, they will have no value until he takes them up again." - Lloyd C. Douglas, The Robe |

Crete, May 1941. Against all odds the Everards must survive a relentless Luftwaffe assault The situation is dire for British forces in the Mediterranean. Admiral Sir Andrew Cunningham’s signal to his fleet is ‘Stick it out. Navy must not let Army down’. But the ships, with no air cover, have to run the gauntlet of 2,000 German bombers; and can only lick their wounds under cover of darkness. Nick Everard commands the destroyer Tuareg as it ventures well inside Stuka territory. There they are ordered to evacuate a body of troops, plus an Australian field hospital and thirty nurses, from right under the Germans’ noses. The soon-decimated flotilla has to make it round the Aegean, then out of Crete – but only a miracle can save them! Last Lift from Crete is the story of a battle lost and won. It combines gripping personal drama with incredible naval action and shows Alexander Fullerton at the height of his career and his writing powers. A must-read for fans of Alistair MacLean and C. S. Forester.

21. What is TimE
|
|||
|
The cosmos itself is not governed or regulated by time but by chance, so cosmology can never appear consistently logical. Time and regulation are human concepts. The ‘points and instants’ notion is no longer credible. Points are our basic intellectual tools since the instants arise through moving from point to point, making time discrete. A.N. Whitehead’s definition of time as “a sequence of non-interacting moments” is credible. Russell also said “There is no longer a universal time...” And Professor Eddington observed that time does not ‘flow’. The Minkowski 4-D geometry is seen as plainly false, and so time travel is impossible. There are no days in nature at all. There is only one constant day. All existence is daylight. The nights are freakish and irrelevant. The earth’s rotations are just flippant shadows over reality. Nothing in astronomy happens only by night and not by day. Logically deduced, time appears to be human and we can solve the problem of how it passes by, too.” |

24. The Warrior Princess Submissive
|
|||
|
WINNER: 2015 Golden Flogger Award for Best Nonfiction BDSM Book of the Year! Ever get the feeling, when you read about all the "classic" categories of submissive, that there must be one missing? You know which one we're talking about. The missing submissive is the one that is the wicked-smart, strong-willed, uber-competent, ultra-competitive, synergistic, switchy, crusader. She's no one's doormat; never a victim. She is a kick-ass submissive for the 21st century. Think: Xena, the Warrior Princess, kneeling at the feet of Hercules. This definitely isn’t a woman in a precarious predicament waiting helplessly for her White Knight to arrive and slay a dragon for her. This was a woman who, as she is kicking the dragon’s ass, smiles at the White Knight standing on the sidelines and says, “Hey, buddy! Feel free to jump right in and lend your sword to this fight. Otherwise, stay the hell out of my way!” The Warrior Princess doesn’t need or want a rescuer. The Warrior Princess needs an ally that she can rely upon in the chaos of battle. She seeks a warrior equal to the tasks that she has already chosen for herself, and is demonstrably capable of accomplishing with, or without, his help. She is willing and able to fight the good fight alone, but welcomes the notion of having a worthy partner, fighting by her side. And yet, when the day’s fighting is done, she is perfectly at ease with considering herself entirely His - heart, might, mind, body, and soul. Why is she important? She is important because she just may be the hope and salvation of this lifestyle. There will come a day, in the not too distant future, when the Warrior Princess Submissive will be forced to become a combatant in a highly politicized war on the BDSM lifestyle. It will be a propaganda war that characterizes all Dominants as abusers and all submissives as victims of abusive and exploitative relationships. When she comes out of the shadows and chooses to fight for the BDSM lifestyle instead of against it - as many of her contemporaries will expect her to do - her strong moral compass will reassure those on the sidelines that she is doing what is right and just. Michael Makai is the author of the Amazon best-seller, Domination & Submission: The BDSM Relationship Handbook. |
25. Zero Day
|

|
An airliner's controls abruptly fail mid-flight over the Atlantic. An oil tanker runs aground in Japan when its navigational system suddenly stops dead. Hospitals everywhere have to abandon their computer databases when patients die after being administered incorrect dosages of their medicine. In the USA, a nuclear power plant nearly becomes the next Chernobyl when its cooling systems malfunction. At first, these random computer failures seem like unrelated events. But Jeff Aiken, a former government analyst who quit in disgust after witnessing the gross errors that led up to 9/11, thinks otherwise. Jeff fears a more serious attack targeting the United States computer infrastructure is already under way. And as other menacing computer malfunctions pop up around the world, some with deadly results, he realizes that there isn't much time if he hopes to prevent an international catastrophe. Written by a global authority on cyber-security, Zero Day presents a chilling 'what if' scenario that, in a world completely reliant on technology, is more than possible today... it's a cataclysmic disaster just waiting to happen. 'Mark came to Microsoft in 2006 to help advance the state of the art of Windows, now in his latest compelling creation he is raising awareness of the all too real threat of cyber-terrorism.' Bill Gates 'CyberTerrorism. Get used to that word and understand it because you're going to see more of it in the newspapers and hear it on the news in the not too distant future. Mark Russinovich is a CyberSecurity expert who has turned his considerable knowledge into a very scary and too plausible novel. Zero Day is not science fiction; it is science fact, and it is a clear warning of Doomsday.' Nelson DeMille 'While what Mark wrote is fiction, the risks that he writes about eerily mirror many situations that we see today.' Howard A. Schmidt, White House Cyber Security Coordinator 'An up-to-the-moment ticking-clock thriller, Zero Day imagines the next 9/11 in a frightening but all too believable way. An expert in the field, Mark Russinovich writes about cyberterrorism with a mix of technical authority and dramatic verve. I was riveted.' William Landay, author of The Strangler 'When someone with Mark Russinovich's technical chops writes a tale about tech gone awry, leaders in the public and private sector should take notes.' Daniel Suarez, author of Daemon 'Nothing if not topical... a full share of conspiracies, betrayals, violence and against-the-clock maneuvers.' Kirkus Reviews |

She knows she’s in way over her head with him, but this good girl has enough inner strength and confidence to stand up to Roman’s hard-charging, take-what-he-wants attitude. Can she get past his foul mouth and unapologetically rapacious sexual appetite to the good, kind man she wants to believe lurks beneath, or is Roman Badd as wild and untamable as the fires he fights? |

54. Kungamordet
|
|||
|
Linda Lykke Jacobsen sitter och följer valrysaren framför TV:n och hör kommentatorerna tala om socialdemokraternas nederlag och om ”ett historiskt kliv åt höger” men det enda hon kan tänka på är sin man, den nu avgående finansministern. För de flesta betraktare är han en briljant politiker och en självklar efterträdare till partiledarposten, men Linda ser någonting annat. Efter trettio års äktenskap kan hon läsa minsta tecken och vet när det är dags att ligga lågt – men hon vet också att det aldrig hjälper.Kungamordet – en fristående fortsättning av succéromanen Kronprinsessan (2003) – är en inträngande skildring av maktens innersta väsen, både i dess offentliga betydelse och i dess privata. Det är en stark och oavlåtligt spännande roman om dem som styr och dem som drabbas, om makt och vanmakt – och ytterst: om förövare och offer. ”Maktlöshet förlamar. Det är en insikt som Holst flyttar från hjärnan rakt in i mellangärdet.” – Sydsvenska Dagbladet”Holst har tagit på sig en stor uppgift: att avslöja maktens väsen – vilket betyder att det i synnerhet är mäns förhållande till makt och kvinnors förhållande till män med makt hon skjuter skarpt på – verkligen skarpt…. Starkast är Kungamordet i sin skildring av de mekanismer som förenar en våldsman och hans offer i ett ömsesidigt beroende.”  - Berlingske Tidende"Hon sätter fingret på några aktuella frågor: den politiska maktens trovärdighet eller snarare bristen på densamma, integrationsproblem, tvångsäktenskap och först och främst den avskyvärda hustrumisshandeln som förekommer i alla sociala skikt – också bland politiker, vars program understryker likhet mellan könen.  Kristeligt Dagblad  Översättare: Margareta Järnebrand, Omslagsformgivare: Sara R.

Astride her white palfrey, surrounded by a nimbus of silver-blond hair, Jasmine was a vision to strike a man mute with desire.  But the violet-eyed love child of King Richard's half brother had vowed that no man would ever rule her heart.  Until she saw the face of the Devil himself in her crystal ball--the dark, brooding knight who would kill to make her his own.  She would risk a dissolute court and a maddened, lustful king to keep destiny at bay, anything to keep her from the hypnotic eyes and burning caresses of... The Falcon. A wickedly handsome warrior who lived by blood and the sword, Falcon de Burgh wanted to wed no woman--until he laid eyes on the exquisite Jasmine, and he vowed to possess her, to teach her all the wondrous ways a man could love a woman, no matter what it might take to conquer her fiery, unyielding heart. Falcon knew only blind, reckless passion as he swore to tame, at the risk of his life... The Flower. From the Paperback edition. |
56. The Open Society and its Enemies
|
|||
|
Written in political exile during the Second World War and first published in 1945, Karl Popper's The Open Society and Its Enemies is one of the most influential books of the twentieth century. Hailed by Bertrand Russell as a 'vigorous and profound defence of democracy', its now legendary attack on the philosophies of Plato, Hegel and Marx exposed the dangers inherent in centrally planned political systems. Popper's highly accessible style, his erudite and lucid explanations of the thought of great philosophers and the recent resurgence of totalitarian regimes around the world are just three of the reasons for the enduring popularity of The Open Society and Its Enemies, and for why it demands to be read both today and in years to come. This is the second of two volumes of The Open Society and Its Enemies. |

61. The Age of Surveillance Capitalism
|
|||
|
THE TOP 10 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER 'E veryone needs to read this book as an act of digital self-defense.' -- Naomi Klein, Author of No Logo, the Shock Doctrine, This Changes Everything and No is Not Enough The challenges to humanity posed by the digital future, the first detailed examination of the unprecedented form of power called "surveillance capitalism," and the quest by powerful corporations to predict and control us. The heady optimism of the Internet's early days is gone. Technologies that were meant to liberate us have deepened inequality and stoked divisions. Tech companies gather our information online and sell it to the highest bidder, whether government or retailer. Profits now depend not only on predicting our behaviour but modifying it too. How will this fusion of capitalism and the digital shape our values and define our future? Shoshana Zuboff shows that we are at a crossroads. We still have the power to decide what kind of world we want to live in, and what we decide now will shape the rest of the century. Our choices: allow technology to enrich the few and impoverish the many, or harness it and distribute its benefits. The Age of Surveillance Capitalism is a deeply-reasoned examination of the threat of unprecedented power free from democratic oversight. As it explores this new capitalism's impact on society, politics, business, and technology, it exposes the struggles that will decide both the next chapter of capitalism and the meaning of information civilization. Most critically, it shows how we can protect ourselves and our communities and ensure we are the masters of the digital rather than its slaves. |

I början av sjuttiotalet är Svartvattnet en tynande norrländsk by bland många andra. Då händer något. Ett dubbelmord långt ute i väglöst land.Det går arton år innan någon börjar ana sanningen om det som skett. Och då blir det lika farligt igen därute i myrlandet. Händelsen har blivit en mörk kraft med verkan in i många människors liv. Det är dessa människor Kerstin Ekmans roman handlar om, deras försök att rädda minne och sammanhang fast de bor i den skugga av glömska som ligger över landsbygdens byar och små samhällen.Men i lika hög grad är det en roman om ett landskap. Människan har farit illa fram med det. När de stora skogsbolagen drar sig tillbaka är det för alltid förändrat av hyggen, vägnät och grustäkter. Kvar är de namnlösa platserna i starrens rike, gungande våta tuvor och sorlande vatten under marken. Vattnet viskar och jämrar, isande klart eller sugande svart. I sommarens bleka nattljus tycks händelser och platser sväva och vandra, lika svårgripbara och tvetydiga som människors minnen och handlingar. Händelser vid vatten utkom första gången 1993 och belönades bl.a. med Augustpriset, Svenska Deckarakademins pris och Nordiska rådets pris. Sedan dess har romanen gjort ett segertåg över världen och översatts till ett stort antal språk. Omslagsformgivare: Eva Wilsson |

Molly was brutally murdered four years ago in their home, along with his beloved wife, Cassie, and his brother-in-law. But then Decker is tracked down by a man he’ll never forget: Meryl Hawkins, his first homicide arrest more than twelve years ago. Hawkins has been in prison serving a life sentence but was recently released due to a terminal illness. Decker now finds himself questioning what had seemed watertight evidence at the time – maybe he’d been a bit too keen to get that conviction? Could Hawkins really be innocent, as he’s always claimed? If so, the killer is still out there – with a possible connection to a new crime. As the body count rises, and Decker and his former partner Mary Lancaster dig deeper, it looks as though there’s a lot more to what they thought was a closed case. |

Head of the class ... Garrett Daniels has this whole life thing figured out. The cocky, charismatic former high school star quarterback is an idolized football coach and "cool" teacher in the hometown where he's not just a golden boy — he's platinum. He has good friends, a great house on the lake, and the best damn sidekick a man could ask for: Snoopy, the albino beagle. Then...Callie Carpenter comes home. And knocks him right on his tight end zone. Back to school... Callie has a pretty sweet life herself...on the other side of the country. But circumstances — that she'd prefer to never speak of again — have brought her back home, helping out her parents and substitute teaching at her old high school. Now she's facing bickering, raging hormones, constant gossip, awkward weirdness, and drama galore...and that's just the teachers. Just like old times... When Garrett offers to show his former high school sweetheart the secrets of his winning teacher ways, Callie jumps at the chance - and then has to stop herself from jumping him. Good friends are all they can ever be. Or...these teachers just might end up getting schooled — hard — by love . |
85. 1793

Vinnare av Årets bok, Crimetime Specsavers Award Årets deckardebut och Årets bästa svenska debut 2017 av Svenska DeckarakademinGustav III är död. Mer än ett år har gått sedan skotten föll på maskeradbalen. Kronprinsen är omyndig och krigsåren har tömt statskassan. Riket styrs av egenintressen medan folket far illa. Ingen litar på någon. Överallt frodas missnöje och paranoia.Hösten 1793 hittas ett lik i Fatburen på Södermalm, den igenslammade sjö där allt kåkstadens avskräde hamnar. Den döde saknar armar och ben, men skadorna är inte nya.Cecil Winge har varit Stockholms poliskammare behjälplig med sitt skarpsinne förr. Nu vacklar hans hälsa, men han krävs på en gentjänst han inte kan neka. Tiden är knapp, och den vinter som ska bli den svåraste Stockholm skådat på ett decennium är i antågande.Ur fyra berättarperspektiv klär Niklas Natt och Dag av den sengustavianska tiden dess prakt och ståtlighet, och avtäcker en era av kött och blod, nöd och förtvivlan, men också förhoppningar och den vilja till förändring som sått fröna till vårt eget samhälle.1793 är Bellman noir, en beckmörk sentida ättling till Drottningens juvelsmycke och ett knytnävsslag mot den idylliserade bilden av svenskt 1700-tal. |

#1 New York Times Bestseller A Reese Witherspoon x Hello Sunshine Book Club Pick "I can't even express how much I love this book! I didn't want this story to end!"--Reese Witherspoon "Painfully beautiful."-- The New York Times Book Review "Perfect for fans of Barbara Kingsolver."-- Bustle For years, rumors of the "Marsh Girl" have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on the North Carolina coast.

Perfect for fans of Barbara Kingsolver and Karen Russell, Where the Crawdads Sing is at once an exquisite ode to the natural world, a heartbreaking coming-of-age story, and a surprising tale of possible murder.

Femtio nyanser-febern har drabbat världen och med den följer en ny generation erotisk litteratur. Sylvia Days Crossfiretrilogi har gjort internationell succé; redan såld till över 30 länder. För dig sedd är den andra delen om Eva and Gideon. Gideon Cross. Vacker och perfekt på utsidan. Men skadad och plågad på insidan. Han var mitt ljus, som kunde ge mig med de mörkaste upplevelserna. Jag kunde inte hålla mig borta. Jag ville inte. Han var mitt missbruk, alla mina fantasier, min. Mitt förflutna var lika våldsamt som hans, och jag var så trasig. Vi skulle aldrig fungera. Det var för hårt, alltför smärtsamt - utom när det var perfekt. De stunder när vår kärlek trängde undan alla problem och svartsjuka. Vi var bundna av våra behov. Och vår passion skulle ta oss bortom allt vi tidigare trott om oss själva och livet. För dig blottad ges ut i april, För dig sedd i juni och den tredje och avslutande delen, För dig nära, ges ut i september. "Det här är en historia om kvinnlig sexualitet och mänsklig sårbarhet, om livsbejakande lust, om att ge och ta och våga få, om mörk svartsjuka och en önskan att äga, om den besatthet som kan följa med att älska. En roman väl värd att läsa - både för kvinnor och män." Karina Berg Johansson, författare till Den sista utvägen |

96. Jag ångrar av hela mitt hjärta det där jag kanske gjort
|

Hemma hos Erics pappa är allt noggrant ordnat. Sven Rosén kan bädda sängen, skala räkor och sjunga godnattsång. Han kan recitera Ekelöf och till och med köra bil. Så länge han tar sina Stesolid, Doloxene och Sobril är han en rolig, varm och nästan helt normal pappa. Så när Eric är 17 och telefonen ringer, och hans bror i andra änden berättar att pappa misstänks ha mördat en kompis från Kolmårdens behandlingshem, kommer det som en chock. Hans pappa är på många sätt hopplös, både som förälder och samhällsmedborgare. Men mördare? Jag ångrar av hela mitt hjärta det där jag kanske gjort är en bok om att bli vuxen i skuggan av ett brott. Det är en bok om missbruk, fängelsestraff och konsten att ta konsekvenserna av sina handlingar. Men också om den märkliga kärlek som kan finnas till en pappa som gjort något helt oförlåtligt. |
97. Mein lieber Reichskanzler!
|
|||
|
Mein Lieber Reichskanzler! Så börjar det brev som Gustaf V hösten 1941 i hemlighet sände till Adolf Hitler för att gratulera Führern till framgångarna på östfronten. Han skrev ned det för hand på Drottningholms slott den 28 oktober 1941. I ”Mein Lieber Reichskanzler” berättar Expressens förre chefredaktör Staffan Thorsell om kontakterna mellan Sverige och Hitlers Rikskansli. Han berättar om bröllopet mellan Gustaf Adolf, arvinge till Sveriges tron, och Sibylla, dotter till hertigen av Sachsen, Koburg och Gotha. SA-män i bruna uniformer kantade bröllopskortegens väg och Hitler gratulerade brudens far, som var morfar till vår nuvarande kung, och som en gång i tiden banade väg för Hitler till Rikskansliet i Berlin.   Staffan Thorsell skriver om svenska biskopar, akademiledamöter, officerare och direktörer som slog sig ned i soffan hos Hitler och om Sveriges förhållande till det Tredje riket. Nya dokument berättar om den svenske ärkebiskopen Erling Eidem, som i oktober 1942 via en tysk präst och en SS-man, fick veta precis hur det gick till när judar från hela Europa gasades ihjäl i de förintelseläger som Hitler byggt upp i Polen. De hoppades att den svenske biskopen skulle slå larm och berätta för världen vad som pågick. Han valde att tiga. ”Mein Lieber Reichskanzler!” är resultatet av en djupdykning i svenska, tyska och amerikanska arkiv och bibliotek. Boken är ett viktigt nutidshistoriskt dokument som ger en uppseendeväckande bild av kontakterna mellan Sverige och Tyskland. En bild som många idag inte känner till och som andra gärna vill blunda för. |

** This ebook was updated 3.1.19 ** 'The exciting beginning of a promising new epic fantasy series. Prepare for ancient mysteries, innovative magic, and heart-pounding heists' Brandon Sanderson, New York Times bestselling author of Oathbringer She thought it was just another job. But her discovery could bring the city to its knees . . . The city of Tevanne runs on scrivings, industrialised magical inscriptions that make inanimate objects sentient; they power everything, from walls to wheels to weapons. Scrivings have brought enormous progress and enormous wealth - but only to the four merchant Houses who control them. Everyone else is a servant or slave, or they eke a precarious living in the hellhole called the Commons. There's not much in the way of work for an escaped slave like Sancia Grado, but she has an unnatural talent that makes her one of the best thieves in the city. When she's offered a lucrative job to steal an ancient artefact from a heavily guarded warehouse, Sancia agrees, dreaming of leaving the Commons - but instead, she finds herself the target of a murderous conspiracy. Someone powerful in Tevanne wants the artefact, and Sancia dead - and whoever it is already wields power beyond imagining. Sancia will need every ally, and every ounce of wits at her disposal, if she is to survive - because if her enemy gets the artefact and unlocks its secrets, thousands will die, and, even worse, it will allow ancient evils back into the world and turn their city into a devastated battleground. ' Robert Jackson Bennett deserves a huge audience' Brent Weeks 'An altogether terrific read' Sebastien de Castell ' Intricate worldbuilding, fascinating magic, and engaging characters. More please!' Felicia Day ' Inventive, immersive, and thrilling . . . Do yourself a favor and pick this up!' Kevin Hearne |
