Still, a curse threatens to keep Shazi and Khalid apart forever.

Now she’s reunited with her family, who have found refuge in the desert, where a deadly force is gathering against Khalid—a force set on destroying his empire and commanded by Shazi’s spurned childhood sweetheart.

Hot as an Armani ad, smart enough to get into Yale, and colder than the Arctic, Jack Hunter's never gone out with anyone.

Ønskeliste April (Engelsk)

Nå er det jammen med på tide med en ny ønskeliste, og denne gangen skal det handle om engelske bøker! Om jeg bare hadde vært rik... Am I right??

1. Redeeming Love av Francine Rivers

California's gold country, 1850. A time when men sold their souls for a bag of gold and women sold their bodies for a place to sleep.

Angel expects nothing from men but betrayal. Sold into prostitution as a child she survives by keeping her hatred alive. And what she hates most are the men who use her, leaving her empty and dead inside.

Then she meets Michael Hosea. A man who seeks his Father's heart in everything, Michael obeys God's call to marry Angel and to love her unconditionally. Slowly, day by day, he defies Angel's every bitter expectation, until despite her resistance, her frozen heart begins to thaw.

But with her unexpected softening come overwhelming feelings of unworthiness and fear. And so Angel runs. Back to the darkness, away from her husband's pursuing love, terrified of the truth she no longer can deny: Her final healing must come from the One who loves her even more than Michael does ... the One who will never let her go.

2. The Book of Ivy av Amy Engel

After a brutal nuclear war, the United States was left decimated. A small group of survivors eventually banded together, but only after more conflict over which family would govern the new nation. The Westfalls lost. Fifty years later, peace and control are maintained by marrying the daughters of the losing side to the sons of the winning group in a yearly ritual.

This year, it is my turn.

My name is Ivy Westfall, and my mission is simple: to kill the president’s son—my soon-to-be husband—and restore the Westfall family to power.

But Bishop Lattimer is either a very skilled actor or he’s not the cruel, heartless boy my family warned me to expect. He might even be the one person in this world who truly understands me. But there is no escape from my fate. I am the only one who can restore the Westfall legacy.

Because Bishop must die. And I must be the one to kill him…

3. Since you've been gone av Morgan Matson

The Pre-Sloane Emily didn't go to parties, she barely talked to guys, she didn't do anything crazy. Enter Sloane, social tornado and the best kind of best friend—the one who yanks you out of your shell.

But right before what should have been an epic summer, Sloane just… disappears. No note. No calls. No texts. No Sloane. There’s just a random to-do list. On it, thirteen Sloane-selected-definitely-bizarre-tasks that Emily would never try… unless they could lead back to her best friend.

Apple Picking at Night? Okay, easy enough.

Dance until Dawn? Sure. Why not?

Kiss a Stranger? Um...

Getting through Sloane’s list would mean a lot of firsts. But Emily has this whole unexpected summer ahead of her, and the help of Frank Porter (totally unexpected) to check things off. Who knows what she’ll find?

Go Skinny Dipping? Wait ... what?

4. Snow like Ashes av Sara Raasch

A heartbroken girl. A fierce warrior. A hero in the making.

Sixteen years ago the Kingdom of Winter was conquered and its citizens enslaved, leaving them without magic or a monarch. Now, the Winterians’ only hope for freedom is the eight survivors who managed to escape, and who have been waiting for the opportunity to steal back Winter’s magic and rebuild the kingdom ever since.

Orphaned as an infant during Winter’s defeat, Meira has lived her whole life as a refugee, raised by the Winterians’ general, Sir. Training to be a warrior—and desperately in love with her best friend, and future king, Mather — she would do anything to help her kingdom rise to power again.

So when scouts discover the location of the ancient locket that can restore Winter’s magic, Meira decides to go after it herself. Finally, she’s scaling towers, fighting enemy soldiers, and serving her kingdom just as she’s always dreamed she would. But the mission doesn’t go as planned, and Meira soon finds herself thrust into a world of evil magic and dangerous politics – and ultimately comes to realize that her destiny is not, never has been, her own.

4. Shadows av Paula Weston

It’s almost a year since Gaby Winters was in the car crash that killed her twin brother, Jude. Her body has healed in the sunshine of Pandanus Beach, but her grief is raw and constant. It doesn’t help that every night in her dreams she kills demons and other hell-spawn.

And then Rafa comes to town. Not only does he look exactly like the guy who’s been appearing in Gaby’s dreams—he claims a history with her brother that makes no sense. Gaby is forced to accept that what she thought she knew about herself and her life is only a shadow of the truth—and that the truth is more likely to be found in the shadows of her nightmares.

Who is Rafa? Who are the Rephaim? And most importantly, who can she trust?

So when her boss Tyler Alexander offers to pay her pricey ticket home for New Year, Dory just can’t say no… even if she has to pretend to be his girlfriend for the holidays!

Tyler may be hiding the real reason he needs a girlfriend-of-convenience but that’s the least of Dory’s worries when she’s up against the disapproval of his high society mother, and the suspicions of his gorgeous older brother Lucas, the black sheep of the family.

There’s no fooling Lucas, and it’s not just the truth he wants to get closer to… So before the bells have even rung out for Christmas day, Dory finds herself caught up in the Alexander family’s dramas – and sharing more than just a few kisses under the mistletoe!

Cath and Wren are identical twins, and until recently they did absolutely everything together. Now they're off to university and Wren's decided she doesn't want to be one half of a pair any more - she wants to dance, meet boys, go to parties and let loose. It's not so easy for Cath. She's horribly shy and has always buried herself in the fan fiction she writes, where she always knows exactly what to say and can write a romance far more intense than anything she's experienced in real life. Without Wren Cath is completely on her own and totally outside her comfort zone. She's got a surly room-mate with a charming, always-around boyfriend, a fiction-writing professor who thinks fan fiction is the end of the civilized world, a handsome classmate who only wants to talk about words ...And she can't stop worrying about her dad, who's loving and fragile and has never really been alone. Now Cath has to decide whether she's ready to open her heart to new people and new experiences, and she's realizing that there's more to learn about love than she ever thought possible ...

Catch-22, en sylskarp antikrigsroman om andre verdenskrig, som er skrevet av en tidligere bombepilot, er en av forrige århundrets største romaner. Femti år etter at den kom ut første gang, er romanen fremdeles en hjørnesten i amerikansk litteratur og en av de morsomste og mest bejublede bøker noensinne. De senere år har boka figurert på så å si alle Må lese-lister verden over. Catch-22 er en klassiker i alle betydninger av ordet.

Handlingen utspiller seg på en fiktiv øy utenfor Italia og beskriver den håpløse situasjonen til amerikanske bombeflygere under andre verdenskrig. Hovedpersonen, krigsflyger Youssarian, er rasende fordi tusener av mennesker han aldri har møtt forsøker å drepe ham. Hans virkelige problem er imidlertid ikke fienden - det er hans egen armé, som fortsetter å øke antall operasjoner soldatene må utføre for å fullføre sin tjeneste.

Yossarian har femti bombetokt bak seg, er livredd for flere og vil slippe unna krigen. Han spiller fullstendig sprø, men frontkolliderer med krigsreglementets paragraf 22 når han oppgir galskap som grunn til å bli dimittert. Paragrafen fastsetter at man kunne bli fritatt for flyving hvis man var sinnssyk. Men den som har vett nok til å søke om fritakelse, med dette beviser at han er ved sine fulle fem. Dermed er Yossarian fanget i paragraf-fellas dilemma og dømt til å fortsette å fly meningsløse bombetokt. /Cappelen Damm/

Sammenlignes med Vindens skygge. Romanen forteller historien til syv familier i Paris gjennom syv hundre år, fra ferdigstillingen av Notre Dame rundt midten av 1200-tallet til studentoppgjøret i 1968. De Cygne-familien representerer aristokratiet, le Sourd-familien en side av underklassen med kriminelle tendenser, Gascon-familien arbeiderklassen, og Blanchard-familien bourgeoisiet. Gjennom øynene til de ulike karakterene får vi innblikk i de historiske høydepunktene som har skapt det Paris vi kjenner i dag. Et drama gjennomsyret av kunst, krig og kjærlighet som fanger denne europeiske verdensmetropolens storslagenhet. Paris' lukter, smaker, ja selve byens sjel, kommer til live i dette gjennomarbeidede verket. 90 000 i første opplag i USA.

Ønskeliste November

Noe er galt i det gamle huset familien til Lin har leid, det er hun sikker på. Klokkene tikker for sakte. Rosebedet er dekket av rim, selv i øsende regnvær. Og når en mystisk nøkkel merket «Vindeltorn» dukker opp, finner Lin en sprekk i kjellerveggen. En portal til en verden ved navn Sylver.
I dette snødekte riket bor alle døde dyr som en gang har elsket et barn. Lin blir til sin store glede gjenforent med Rufus, kjæledyret hun begravde under rosebusken. Men sammen må de finne den forsvunne Vinterfyrsten hvis de skal redde Sylver fra undergang.
De er ikke de eneste som jakter på gutten denne natten. I mørket lurer en mann med skyggemunn, klar til å sette klørne i den aller siste Vinterfyrste.
Sitrende spenning og uforglemmelige rollefigurer venter leserne i dette magiske eventyret som utvilsomt vil bli en klassiker. /Gyldendal.no/

I denne klassikeren om "ridderen av den bedrøvelige skikkelse" lærer en klok og erfaren mann å se med mistro på alle illusjoner og ta tingene for hva de er, menneskene for hva de er verd, og livet for hva det innebærer av realiteter. Gjennom sine to hovedpersoner, den fattige adelsmannen Don Quijote og bonden Sancho, skildrer Cervantes to hovedtyper av menneskeheten - og to hovedtrekk i den spanske folkesjel: eventyrlyst, storhetsvanvidd, visjonær idealisme, og praktisk, nøktern livsvisdom og næringsvett. /cdon.com/

Melissa Anelli tar oss med på en personlig reise gjennom alle deler av Harry Potter-fenomenet – fra den første fortryllelsen til den varige forandringen av våre liv og drømmer – med medvirkning fra redaktører, agenter, forleggere, fans og J.K. Rowling selv.
Taxisjåføren visste hvor jeg skulle da jeg ga ham adressen. «Rik dame, det,» sa han til slutt. «Mmm-hm.» «Har du kommet til Edinburgh for å treffe henne?» Jeg nikket. «Jeg har vært her før. Vi har snakket sammen før. Jeg skriver en bok.» Han snudde seg og så på meg i all hast, uten å miste kontrollen over bilen. «Å ja?» Jeg nikket. «Hva handler den om?» «Å … alt mulig.» Han lo. «Nei da, den er om Harry Potter. Om hva hun skapte, om de siste ti årene i den virkelige verden.» «Å ja?» Han svingte inn en gate jeg hadde sett en gang før. «Du vet det, altså?» «Jepp. Jeg driver et nettsted,» sa jeg tydelig. «Det heter The Leaky Cauldron.»
"Det har vært en utrolig opplevelse for meg å lese boken du nå holder i hendene. Det er som om jeg omsider har fått lov til å gjøre det jeg har hatt lyst til i mange år: å gå til en bokhandel på utgivelsesnatten i forkledning, og rett og slett se og høre."

Secrets from her mother: I lost my virginity in the spare bedroom with Danny Nussbaum while Mum and Dad were downstairs watching Ben-Hur.

My name is Rapunzel and I will tell you my story. I will tell you the truth. /goodreads/

Ønskeliste Februar

Da er det på tide med en liten ny ønskeliste her på bloggen.

Nineteen Eighty Four, by George Orwell - Akasha Classics, AkashaPublishing.Com - It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen. Winston Smith, his chin nuzzled into his breast in an effort to escape the vile wind, slipped quickly through the glass doors of Victory Mansions, though not quickly enough to prevent a swirl of gritty dust from entering along with him. The hallway smelt of boiled cabbage and old rag mats. At one end of it a coloured poster, too large for indoor display, had been tacked to the wall. It depicted imply an enormous face, more than a metre wide: the face of a man of about forty-five, with a heavy black moustache and ruggedly handsome features. Winston made for the stairs. It was no use trying the lift. Even at the best of times it was seldom working, and at present the electric current was cut off during daylight hours. It was part of the economy drive in preparation for Hate Week. The flat was seven flights up, and Winston, who was thirty-nine and had a varicose ulcer above his right ankle, went slowly, resting several times on the way. On each landing, opposite the lift-shaft, the poster with the enormous face gazed from the wall. It was one of those pictures which are so contrived that the eyes follow you about when you move. BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU, the caption beneath it ran. /goodreads.com/

I Capture the Castle tells the story of seventeen-year-old Cassandra and her family, who live in not-so-genteel poverty in a ramshackle old English castle. Here she strives, over a six-month period, first in a sixpenny book, then in a shilling book, and, finally, in a splendid two-guinea book, to hone her writing skills. And it is within these pages that she candidly chronicles her encounters with the estate's new, young, and handsome American landlords, the effects of her sister Rose's marital ambitions, her writer's-blocked father's anguished and ultimately renewed creativity, and her own hopeless, first descent into love. /goodreads.com/

When Ginny receives thirteen little blue envelopes and instructions to buy a plane ticket to London, she knows something exciting is going to happen. What Ginny doesn't know is that she will have the adventure of her life and it will change her in more ways than one. Life and love are waiting for her across the Atlantic, and the thirteen little blue envelopes are the key to finding them in this funny, romantic, heartbreaking novel. /goodreads.com/

She takes up the post of governess at Thornfield, falls in love with Mr. Rochester, and discovers the impediment to their lawful marriage in a story that transcends melodrama to portray a woman's passionate search for a wider and richer life than Victorian society traditionally allowed.

With a heroine full of yearning, the dangerous secrets she encounters, and the choices she finally makes, Charlotte Bronte's innovative and enduring romantic novel continues to engage and provoke readers. /goodreads.com/
