Vaniljekrem, Sobril og pinnedyr

Doppler av Erlend Loe er en ellevill, absurd og morsom roman av en forfatter som ikke nekter seg noe i en tekst som også byr på alvorlige undertoner og kritikk av det moderne forbrukersamfunnet. Andreas Doppler er en vellykket mann av sin tid. Familiefar med to barn og god jobb. En dag faller han av sykkelen på en tur i marka. Halvt svimeslått registrerer han en ro han ikke har kjent på lenge. Han slipper de trivielle tankene om nytt bad og valget om armatur og fliser. Borte er også den evinnelige surringen av barnesangene fra sønnens tallrike videoer, mens erkjennelsen om farens død blir tydeligere. Hendelsen får ham til å velge å flytte ut i marka. Han bosetter seg i telt, slakter en elg og får kalven som venn og adoptivsønn. Han prøver å leve som jeger og sanker, men må erkjenne at når det gjelder behovet for skummet melk, må han ta steget videre til bytteøkonomi. Doppler er første bok i en trilogi. Bok to er Volvo Lastvagnar og den tredje Slutten på verden slik vi kjenner den.

Folk med angst er en komedie om et gisseldrama på en visning. En mislykket bankraner låser seg inne sammen med en overentusiastisk eiendomsmegler, to bitre Ikea-misbrukere, en høygravid kvinne, en suicidal mangemillionær og et kaninhode. Til slutt gir raneren opp og frigir alle gislene, men når politiet stormer leiligheten er den tom … I en serie dysfunksjonelle vitneavhør etterpå får vi høre alles versjon av hva som egentlig skjedde. Derfra utvikler det seg til et klassisk puslespill-mysterium rundt spørsmålene: Hvordan lyktes raneren med å flykte? Hvorfor er alle så sinte? Og hva er det egentlig som er feil med folk nå for tiden?

Folk med angst

Helvete

Svensk ellevill bestselger - en fenomenal reise gjennom samtidshistorien. Svensk sensommer, 2011. Petra, selvlært astrofysiker og nå dommedagsprofet, har regnet ut at atmosfæren kollapser 21. sep-tember samme år, kl. 21.20. Nå befinner hun seg on the road i en husbil med Johan, ikke verdens smarteste, men dog en mester-kokk, og hans søster Agnes, en enke på syttifem år med hang til å tjene penger på nettet. Trioen har det travelt. Innen jorden går under, skal de rekke helt frem til Roma der Johan skal gi storebroren sin et sannhetens ord og en ørefik. Selvsagt går ingenting som planlagt. «Det er lett å forstå hva som gjør Jonassons bøker så enormt populære. Han har en egen evne til å kombinere et hurtig tempo med en stor porsjon humor. Legg til det populærhistoriske anslaget som er regelen i Jonassons bøker heller enn unntaket, og du får en cocktail som, for å si det med en klisjé, inneholder noe for enhver. Profeten og idioten er ikke noe unntak.» Aftonbladet «... forbasket godt.» Alingsås Tidning «En latterbombe. Svenske Jonas Jonasson briljerer igjen.» [terningkast 5] Joakim Tjøstheim, Dagbladet

"Unge mann, sier von Borring, du har problemer. Håndtrykket ditt er dødt. Øynene er vasne. Du trenger hjelp." "Jeg vet ikke hva jeg trenger, sier Doppler. Men hjelp høres ut som en begynnelse." Värmland. Sverige. Skog overalt. En utgammel dame kommer i skade for å mishandle undulatene sine. En like utgammel speider ser på fugler og lengter. Inn i dette vesle universet kommer Andreas Doppler gående. Volvo Lastvagnar fortsetter der fjorårets roman Doppler slutter. Vi følger samme person og samme elg et stykke inn i Värmland, hvor de møter en speider som har sovet ute tjuefem tusen ganger og en narkoman gammel dame som vil forandre verden. Forfatteren nekter seg ingenting denne gangen, og resultatet er en vilter og leken tekst som noen vil trykke til sitt bryst og andre vil sky som pesten.

He’s the campus king with a no-girlfriends rule. But he’s about to break it for the most irritating, sassy-mouthed woman he’s ever met. Flynn Kingman’s senior year plan is simple: class, getting drafted in the first round, and no romantic complications. Until he chases a rogue baby donkey across campus and meets Tempest Navarro—the one woman immune to his charm. Tempest Navarro is hiding her bestselling romance novels, anxiety, and a baby donkey in her sorority house. Nope, nothing to see here. Especially not for a jock that’s too hot for his own good. Why does he have to be in her Shakespeare class, saying smart things, and driving her insane? When they’re forced together by a university tutoring program, verbal sparring turns to undeniable attraction. Especially when Tempest’s emotional support donkey, her meddling sisters, and a whole lot of Kingman siblings are all conspiring to push them together at every turn. This steamy sports romance features a protective football player with hidden depths, a curvy heroine owning her talents and learning to take up space, an emotional support donkey with perfect timing, and that Bridgertons-meets-American-Football family that’ll make you wish you were a Kingman.

Slutten på verden slik vi kjenner den

Ny sjarmerende fulltreffer fra humørsprederen Holmqvist. På folkemunne er «Peppermøene på hjørnet» navnet på den gamle lærerinneboligen i Löderup på Österlen. Der bor Elsa med hunden Bjäfseman, og venninnen Inga-Marta er nabo. Elsa lever en rolig pensjonisttilværelse og trives med det. Det eneste som får hjertet hennes til å banke litt hardere, er diktene til den velkjente poeten Fritz. Fritz er en ekte gentleman og en følsom sjel, helt motsatt av Elsas tidligere store kjærlighet Gösta. Hans interesser gikk mer i retning av traktorer og den skånske matjorda. Selv om Elsa fryktet at Gösta kunne finne på å anvende et ord som «bedekke» når lidenskapen slo til, rødmer hun fortsatt når hun tenker på de store, varme hendene hans. Freden forstyrres da en ny nabo flytter inn. Rett etter skjer det for første gang på flere årtier et innbrudd i byen. Det er noe skummelt med mannen, og da Elsa bestemmer seg for å spionere på ham, oppdager hun et skattekart og en pistol i hans kjeller. Hun akter å avsløre ham om det så er det siste hun gjør.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! A Most Anticipated Book of 2025: Goodreads • USA TODAY • Marie Claire • BookPage • Literary Lifestyle • Book Riot • Sunset Magazine • Totally Booked with Zibby Owens * A Fallon Book Club Pick The #1 New York Times bestselling author of Anxious People returns with an unforgettably funny, deeply moving tale of four teenagers whose friendship creates a bond so powerful that it changes a complete stranger’s life twenty-five years later. Most people don’t even notice them—three tiny figures sitting at the end of a long pier in the corner of one of the most famous paintings in the world. Most people think it’s just a depiction of the sea. But Louisa, an aspiring artist herself, knows otherwise, and she is determined to find out the story of these three enigmatic figures. Twenty-five years earlier, in a distant seaside town, a group of teenagers find refuge from their bruising home lives by spending long summer days on an abandoned pier, telling silly jokes, sharing secrets, and committing small acts of rebellion. These lost souls find in each other a reason to get up each morning, a reason to dream, a reason to love. Out of that summer emerges a transcendent work of art, a painting that will unexpectedly be placed into eighteen-year-old Louisa’s care. She embarks on a surprise-filled cross-country journey to learn how the painting came to be and to decide what to do with it. The closer she gets to the painting’s birthplace, the more nervous she becomes about what she’ll find. Louisa is proof that happy endings don’t always take the form we expect in this stunning testament to the transformative, timeless power of friendship and art.

My Friends

En humoristisk og varm historie som samtidig sier noe viktig om oss selv og vår tid. Ove er 59 år. Han kjører Saab. Til tross for at han ble sparket som styreleder i borettslaget for flere år siden (i det som Ove selv bare omtaler som «statskuppet»), klarer han ikke å la være å blande seg inn. Han sjekker at alt er på stell, og at ingen bryter reglene. Men når det nyinnflyttede paret i nabohuset er så uheldige å ødelegge Oves postkasse, blir det opptakten til en humoristisk og hjertevarm historie om rufsete katter, uventet vennskap – og kunsten å rygge med tilhenger. Det som skjer, kommer til å forandre en mann og et borettslag for alltid.

Dyrene i Afrika er en historie om avmakt, aktivisme, avvik og tøylesløst begjær. Fem enkeltpersoner - en tannlege, en biolog, en filmklipper, en forfatter og en politietterforsker - kjenner dragninger og tilbøyeligheter de ikke forstår hvor kommer fra. De gjennomgår en radikaliseringsprosess og forstår etter hvert at dersom verden skal overleve, må noen gå i bresjen.

Dyrene i Afrika

Britt-Marie (63) er ikke passiv aggressiv. Det er bare det at skitt og riper og bestikk som ikke ligger på riktig sted i skuffen får henne til å skrike inni seg. Hun har akkurat forlatt ektemannen gjennom 40 år og gått ut av rollen som husmor og inn i rollen som arbeidssøkende. Den eneste jobben hun kan få befinner seg i Borg, et sted som er hardt rammet av finanskrisen, og der alt utenom den ølstinkende pizzasjappa er nedlagt. Britt-Marie hater fotball, men Borg har ikke annet enn fotballen igjen. Dette er absolutt ikke noen god start på et nytt liv. Men når stedets ungdomsklubb så desperat trenger en ny trener at de til slutt er klar for å gi jobben til hvem som helst, da bryr de seg ikke om detaljer som at Britt-Marie absolutt ikke vil ha jobben. Når hun i tillegg blir invitert på date av en politimann og brekker hånden i et solarium, da fins det ingen vei tilbake.

Fullt innsyn. Total åpenhet. Bare sannhet. Det er jo for vår egen sikkerhet. Eller ...? Jannike var rimelig lykkelig. Hun var gift med Stefan, hadde to barn og trivdes som bibliotekar. Så gikk myndighetene stadig sterkere inn for mer åpenhet i samfunnet - ingen skulle ha hemmeligheter, ingen skulle kunne bedrive anonym hets. Alt som ble ytret, måtte kunne etterprøves. Dette var vel fint, tenkte Jannike og støttet opp. Hun begynte til og med å jobbe i selve Innsynet, som overvåket alt og alle. Nå er hun flyktning i de svenske skogene, der eksilnordmenn lever av villsvin og bær. Hva gikk galt i søkingen etter sannhet? Knut Nærum har skrevet en fabulerende fortelling om hvordan vår nære framtid kan se ut hvis vi gir fra oss muligheten til å holde noe for oss selv. Sannheten er inspirert av Det åttende bud: Du skal ikke tale usant om din neste. «Med stor selvsikkerhet bygger Nærum opp et satirisk, parallelt univers.» Jonas Bals, Klassekampen «Knut Nærum skriv tankevekkande satire om grenser for innsyn.» Ingvild Bræin, Dag og Tid

Det hender fra tid til annen at et bokverk så å si går inn som en del av selvbildet til et helt folk. ”Alvdalstrilogien” – Simen, Bror min og Bonden – er et slikt verk. Aukrusts fortellinger har sneket seg inn i det norske folks hjerter, for dette er barndomsskildringer som krysser alle aldersgrenser, og som ikke kjenner geografiske hindre eller sosiale skillelinjer. Det har blitt sagt at Kjell Aukrust hadde den sjeldne evnen til å se det store i det velse, det evige i det hverdagslige, og det ubegripelige i det alminnelige. Historiene fra det som utgjør Alvdalstriologien, er et bevis på nettopp dette.

But she can't even think about her heartbreak when she faces the more pressing matter of making rent this month. And in desperate times, she agrees to let out her spare room to her elusive upstairs neighbour. Aled needs somewhere to stay while his place is being renovated, and she gets to keep her home. It's a win-win situation... At least in theory. For Rosie has sworn off men indefinitely, and never saw herself living with one so soon after her breakup. But being in Aled's company day in, day out has this annoying habit of playing havoc with her heart... On paper they're just flatmates, but could there be room for more between them? The ultimate forced proximity, slow-burn romcom to get your hands on, for fans of Beth O'Leary, Portia MacIntosh and Mhairi McFarlane.

Ingrid Winter sitter fast. I huset hun ikke får solgt, i FAU-møter, i jobbkonflikter, i frykten for dørselgere, i et ekteskap som har mistet gnisten, i sin egen hverdagsangst. Bedre blir det ikke når hun ufrivillig blir plukket ut som representant i en jobbdelegasjon til St. Petersburg. Det skal være starten på forskningssamarbeid over landegrensene, men med Ingrid Winters deltagelse utarter det raskt til kaos, trusler om å bli sendt til Sibir og hostesaft som ikke er hva den utgir seg for å være. Men kanskje er en dose kaos akkurat det som trengs når alt har stivnet i et liv?

One Bed

Knalldebut for svensk debutant. Over 650 000 solgte i Sverige. Tildelt Den svenske bokhandlerprisen i 2009. Etter et langt og begivenhetsrikt liv havner Allan Karlsson på gamlehjem. En dag skal han feire sin hundreårsdag med pomp og prakt. Et spetakkel Allan er så absolutt ubegeistret for at han heller klatrer ut vinduet. I farten får han med seg en veske som han skulle passe et øyeblikk, og straks har han både tyver og politi etter seg. Hundreåringen som klatret ut gjennom vinduet og forsvant handler om en månedslang jakt gjennom Sverige på Allan og hans nye venner. Men boken er også en feelgood-reise gjennom det forferdelige 1900-tallet. Hvordan skjedde det at Allan spiser middag med den blivende president Truman? Og seiler flodbåt med formann Maos unge hustru? Til tross for at den uendelig sorgløse Allan er komplett uinteressert i politikk, kan det synes som om han har påvirket de fleste av forrige århundres store begivenheter.

THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! Named a “Must-Read” by TODAY, Us Weekly, Bustle, BuzzFeed, Goodreads, Entertainment Weekly, Publishers Weekly, Southern Living, Book Riot, Woman’s Day, The Toronto Star, and more! For two sworn enemies, anything can happen during the Hawaiian trip of a lifetime—maybe even love—in this romantic comedy from the New York Times bestselling authors of Love and Other Words. Olive Torres is used to being the unlucky twin: from inexplicable mishaps to a recent layoff, her life seems to be almost comically jinxed. By contrast, her sister Ami is an eternal champion...she even managed to finance her entire wedding by winning a slew of contests. Unfortunately for Olive, the only thing worse than constant bad luck is having to spend the wedding day with the best man (and her nemesis), Ethan Thomas. Olive braces herself for wedding hell, determined to put on a brave face, but when the entire wedding party gets food poisoning, the only people who aren’t affected are Olive and Ethan. Suddenly there’s a free honeymoon up for grabs, and Olive will be damned if Ethan gets to enjoy paradise solo. Agreeing to a temporary truce, the pair head for Maui. After all, ten days of bliss is worth having to assume the role of loving newlyweds, right? But the weird thing is...Olive doesn’t mind playing pretend. In fact, the more she pretends to be the luckiest woman alive, the more it feels like she might be. With Christina Lauren’s “uniquely hilarious and touching voice” (Entertainment Weekly), The Unhoneymooners is a romance for anyone who has ever felt unlucky in love.

Then, there’s the job offer… Well, first, there was the fact that he tracked me down to NYC. It’s really complicated, okay? But so are my feelings for him. I’ve been ignoring them for so long that they became a wall I’m comfortable hiding behind. Damn him and his sweet, hot, cute, dirty-talking self who has cherry-picked his way into every aspect of my life. I’m not complaining… but there’s a problem. Not that he’s my brother’s best friend. Oh, no. Liam Donnghal is a future Hall-of-Famer NHL star. He could have any girl he wants, so why would he want to make the wallflower his end game?

End Game

Gamle Giæver bruker sine siste dager på jorda til å orientere unge Giæver om familiehistorien, om praktiske ting som gjørmestanga, pick-upen, meiseboller, puter, skuter, damer og ikke minst om den åtte hundre år gamle konflikten med Iunkerfamilien på nabogården. Giæver har ikke lyst til å forlate dette livet uten at skikker og sedvaner, kunnskap, livsvisdom og hatet mot Iunkerne føres videre av neste generasjon. «Du! Hei! Se på meg når jeg snakker! Noterer du? Er du klar? Har du slått på opptakeren? Jeg vil at du tar opp det jeg sier og noterer samtidig. Da får du med deg alt. For det som ikke fortelles forsvinner. Det som fortelles forsvinner også, men det tar lengre tid. Betraktelig lengre tid. Okay? Greit? Du er du klar? Godt.» Erlend Loe i storform leser sin lille perle av en bok.

How to Kill Your Family

After a decade apart, childhood sweethearts reconnect by chance but how many words will it take for them to figure out where it all went wrong? From the New York Times bestselling authors of the “delightful” (Shelf Awareness) The Unhoneymooners. The story of the heart can never be unwritten. Macy Sorensen is settling into an ambitious if emotionally tepid routine: work hard as a new pediatrics resident, plan her wedding to an older, financially secure man, keep her head down and heart tucked away. But when she runs into Elliot Petropoulos—the first and only love of her life—the careful bubble she’s constructed begins to dissolve. Once upon a time, Elliot was Macy’s entire world—growing from her gangly bookish friend into the man who coaxed her heart open again after the loss of her mother...only to break it on the very night he declared his love for her. Told in alternating timelines between Then and Now, teenage Elliot and Macy grow from friends to much more—spending weekends and lazy summers together in a house outside of San Francisco devouring books, sharing favorite words, and talking through their growing pains and triumphs. As adults, they have become strangers to one another until their chance reunion. Although their memories are obscured by the agony of what happened that night so many years ago, Elliot will come to understand the truth behind Macy’s decade-long silence, and will have to overcome the past and himself to revive her faith in the possibility of an all-consuming love.

So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish

This fiftieth-anniversary edition commemorates Joseph Heller’s masterpiece with a new introduction; critical essays and reviews by Norman Mailer, Alfred Kazin, Anthony Burgess, and others; rare papers and photos; and much more. Nominated as one of America’s best-loved novels by PBS’s The Great American Read. Now a Hulu limited series starring Christopher Abbott, George Clooney, Kyle Chandler, and Hugh Laurie. Fifty years after its original publication, Catch-22 remains a cornerstone of American literature and one of the funniest—and most celebrated—books of all time. In recent years it has been named to “best novels” lists by Time, Newsweek, the Modern Library, and the London Observer. Set in Italy during World War II, this is the story of the incomparable, malingering bombardier, Yossarian, a hero who is furious because thousands of people he has never met are trying to kill him. But his real problem is not the enemy—it is his own army, which keeps increasing the number of missions the men must fly to complete their service. Yet if Yossarian makes any attempt to excuse himself from the perilous missions he’s assigned, he’ll be in violation of Catch-22, a hilariously sinister bureaucratic rule: a man is considered insane if he willingly continues to fly dangerous combat missions, but if he makes a formal request to be removed from duty, he is proven sane and therefore ineligible to be relieved. This fiftieth-anniversary edition commemorates Joseph Heller’s masterpiece with a new introduction by Christopher Buckley; a wealth of critical essays and reviews by Norman Mailer, Alfred Kazin, Anthony Burgess, and others; rare papers and photos from Joseph Heller’s personal archive; and much more. Here, at last, is the definitive edition of a classic of world literature.

CATCH-22

Christina Lauren, the instant New York Times bestselling and “reigning romance queens” (PopSugar) of modern classics such as The Unhoneymooners and Love and Other Words, returns with a swoonworthy novel following the buttoned-up heir of a grocery chain and his free-spirited artist ex as they fake their relationship in order to receive a massive inheritance. Anna Green thought she was marrying Liam “West” Weston for access to subsidized family housing while at UCLA. She also thought she’d signed divorce papers when the graduation caps were tossed, and they both went on their merry ways. Three years later, Anna is a starving artist living paycheck to paycheck while West is a Stanford professor. He may be one of four heirs to the Weston Foods conglomerate, but he has little interest in working for the heartless corporation his family built from the ground up. He is interested, however, in his one-hundred-million-dollar inheritance. There’s just one catch. Due to an antiquated clause in his grandfather’s will, Liam won’t see a penny until he’s been happily married for five years. Just when Liam thinks he’s in the home stretch, pressure mounts from his family to see this mysterious spouse, and he has no choice but to turn to the one person he’s afraid to introduce to his one-percenter parents—his unpolished, not-so-ex-wife. But in the presence of his family, Liam’s fears quickly shift from whether the feisty, foul-mouthed, paint-splattered Anna can play the part to whether the toxic world of wealth will corrupt someone as pure of heart as his surprisingly grounded and loyal wife. Liam will have to ask himself if the price tag on his flimsy cover story is worth losing true love that sprouted from a lie.

Napoleonskaker, svindel og dynamitt

Majas karriere som stand up-komiker er ikke akkurat lysende. Det er ikke resten av livet hennes, heller. I det siste har hun for eksempel brutt seg inn i en hytte for å stjele sprit, av-tapetsert (halve) veggene til sin beste venn som en overraskelse, og gått glipp av et viktig steg videre i karrieren på grunn av en uoppdragen hund. Men det er vel ikke nok for å bli lagt inn på psykiatrisk avdeling, er det vel?

Hvordan man gjør suksess på et galehus

Audiobook Narrated by Elle Fanning! “The warmth of Thorpe’s tone, together with the thoroughness of her imagination and the artfulness of her pacing, means that skepticism is kept at bay. She sells us on both the characters and the plot . . . [in] this enormously entertaining and lovable book.” —Nick Hornby, New York Times Book Review A bold, laugh-out-loud funny, and heartwarming story about one young woman’s attempt to navigate adulthood, new motherhood, and her meager bank account in our increasingly online world—from the PEN/Faulkner finalist and critically acclaimed author of The Knockout Queen. As the child of a Hooters waitress and an ex-pro wrestler, Margo Millet's always known she’d have to make it on her own. So she enrolls at her local junior college, even though she can’t imagine how she’ll ever make a living. She’s still figuring things out and never planned to have an affair with her English professor—and while the affair is brief, it isn’t brief enough to keep her from getting pregnant. Despite everyone’s advice, she decides to keep the baby, mostly out of naiveté and a yearning for something bigger. Now, at twenty, Margo is alone with an infant, unemployed, and on the verge of eviction. She needs a cash infusion—fast. When her estranged father, Jinx, shows up on her doorstep and asks to move in with her, she agrees in exchange for help with childcare. Then Margo begins to form a plan: she’ll start an OnlyFans as an experiment, and soon finds herself adapting some of Jinx’s advice from the world of wrestling. Like how to craft a compelling character and make your audience fall in love with you. Before she knows it, she’s turned it into a runaway success. Could this be the answer to all of Margo’s problems, or does internet fame come with too high a price? Blisteringly funny and filled with sharp insight, Margo’s Got Money Troubles is a tender tale starring an endearing young heroine who’s struggling to wrest money and power from a world that has little interest in giving it to her. It’s a playful and honest examination of the art of storytelling and controlling your own narrative, and an empowering portrait of coming into your own, both online and off. ?“A wholly original novel. . . . Thorpe is both poetic and profound in the way she brings her remarkable story to an end.” —The Associated Press

Tatt av kvinnen

Lauren: Going back to work was supposed to be a painless transition, but when my new boss turns out to be an arrogant, cocky jerk, he quickly turns my professional life into a world of torture. Okay, fine, calling him an asshat before knowing he was my boss wasn't my finest moment. Hating him should be easy. I just never counted on him being so gorgeous or charming when he's not annoying me. Austin: I expected my new assistant to be professional and punctual, but all I'm getting are dirty looks and rude comments. I should fire the little hellion, but instead all I can think about is bending her over my desk and breaking every rule I've ever made for myself. One look. One touch. One night. If we break the rules, our lives will never be the same again. Good thing rules were made to be broken. And besides, it feels so good to tempt the boss. Contains mature themes.
