Colleen Hoover

In this “brave and heartbreaking novel that digs its claws into you and doesn’t let go, long after you’ve finished it” (Anna Todd, New York Times bestselling author) from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of All Your Perfects, a workaholic with a too-good-to-be-true romance can’t stop thinking about her first love. Lily hasn’t always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants. She’s come a long way from the small town where she grew up—she graduated from college, moved to Boston, and started her own business. And when she feels a spark with a gorgeous neurosurgeon named Ryle Kincaid, everything in Lily’s life seems too good to be true. Ryle is assertive, stubborn, maybe even a little arrogant. He’s also sensitive, brilliant, and has a total soft spot for Lily. And the way he looks in scrubs certainly doesn’t hurt. Lily can’t get him out of her head. But Ryle’s complete aversion to relationships is disturbing. Even as Lily finds herself becoming the exception to his “no dating” rule, she can’t help but wonder what made him that way in the first place. As questions about her new relationship overwhelm her, so do thoughts of Atlas Corrigan—her first love and a link to the past she left behind. He was her kindred spirit, her protector. When Atlas suddenly reappears, everything Lily has built with Ryle is threatened. An honest, evocative, and tender novel, It Ends with Us is “a glorious and touching read, a forever keeper. The kind of book that gets handed down” (USA TODAY).

Madeline Miller

Enter the world of Homer's ancient Greece with the enhanced e-book edition of The Song of Achilles. This edition lets you further engage with this compelling story through video interviews with Madeline Miller and Gregory Maguire, bestselling author of the Wicked series, clips from the audio book at the start of each chapter, an illustrated map, and a pop-up gallery featuring over 40 images and descriptions of the characters, armor, and ships found in the book. The legend begins... Greece in the age of heroes. Patroclus, an awkward young prince, has been exiled to the kingdom of Phthia to be raised in the shadow of King Peleus and his golden son, Achilles. "The best of all the Greeks"—strong, beautiful, and the child of a goddess—Achilles is everything the shamed Patroclus is not. Yet despite their differences, the boys become steadfast companions. Their bond deepens as they grow into young men and become skilled in the arts of war and medicine—much to the displeasure and the fury of Achilles' mother, Thetis, a cruel sea goddess with a hatred of mortals. When word comes that Helen of Sparta has been kidnapped, the men of Greece, bound by blood and oath, must lay siege to Troy in her name. Seduced by the promise of a glorious destiny, Achilles joins their cause, and torn between love and fear for his friend, Patroclus follows. Little do they know that the Fates will test them both as never before and demand a terrible sacrifice. Built on the groundwork of the Iliad, Madeline Miller's page-turning, profoundly moving, and blisteringly paced retelling of the epic Trojan War marks the launch of a dazzling career.

As a third-year Ph.D. candidate, Olive Smith doesn't believe in lasting romantic relationships--but her best friend does, and that's what got her into this situation. Convincing Anh that Olive is dating and well on her way to a happily ever after was always going to take more than hand-wavy Jedi mind tricks: Scientists require proof. So, like any self-respecting biologist, Olive panics and kisses the first man she sees. That man is none other than Adam Carlsen, a young hotshot professor--and well-known ass. Which is why Olive is positively floored when Stanford's reigning lab tyrant agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire, putting Olive's career on the Bunsen burner, Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support and even more unyielding...six-pack abs. Suddenly their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion. And Olive discovers that the only thing more complicated than a hypothesis on love is putting her own heart under the microscope.

Harper Lee

Voted America's Best-Loved Novel in PBS's The Great American Read Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning masterwork of honor and injustice in the deep South—and the heroism of one man in the face of blind and violent hatred One of the most cherished stories of all time, To Kill a Mockingbird has been translated into more than forty languages, sold more than forty million copies worldwide, served as the basis for an enormously popular motion picture, and was voted one of the best novels of the twentieth century by librarians across the country. A gripping, heart-wrenching, and wholly remarkable tale of coming-of-age in a South poisoned by virulent prejudice, it views a world of great beauty and savage inequities through the eyes of a young girl, as her father—a crusading local lawyer—risks everything to defend a black man unjustly accused of a terrible crime.

George Orwell

George Orwell’s 1984 takes on new life with extraordinary relevance and renewed popularity. “Orwell saw, to his credit, that the act of falsifying reality is only secondarily a way of changing perceptions. It is, above all, a way of asserting power.”—The New Yorker In 1984, London is a grim city in the totalitarian state of Oceania where Big Brother is always watching you and the Thought Police can practically read your mind. Winston Smith is a man in grave danger for the simple reason that his memory still functions. Drawn into a forbidden love affair, Winston finds the courage to join a secret revolutionary organization called The Brotherhood, dedicated to the destruction of the Party. Together with his beloved Julia, he hazards his life in a deadly match against the powers that be. Lionel Trilling said of Orwell’s masterpiece, “1984 is a profound, terrifying, and wholly fascinating book. It is a fantasy of the political future, and like any such fantasy, serves its author as a magnifying device for an examination of the present.” Though the year 1984 now exists in the past, Orwell’s novel remains an urgent call for the individual willing to speak truth to power.

In early nineteenth-century England, a spirited young woman copes with the suit of a snobbish gentleman, and the romantic entanglements of her four sisters.

Pride and Prejudice

   Nesta Archeron has always been prickly-proud, swift to anger, and slow to forgive. And ever since being forced into the Cauldron and becoming High Fae against her will, she's struggled to find a place for herself within the strange, deadly world she inhabits. Worse, she can't seem to move past the horrors of the war with Hybern and all she lost in it.

   The one person who ignites her temper more than any other is Cassian, the battle-scarred warrior whose position in Rhysand and Feyre's Night Court keeps him constantly in Nesta's orbit. But her temper isn't the only thing Cassian ignites. The fire between them is undeniable, and only burns hotter as they are forced into close quarters with each other.

   Meanwhile, the treacherous human queens who returned to the Continent during the last war have forged a dangerous new alliance, threatening the fragile peace that has settled over the realms. And the key to halting them might very well rely on Cassian and Nesta facing their haunting pasts.

   Against the sweeping backdrop of a world seared by war and plagued with uncertainty, Nesta and Cassian battle monsters from within and without as they search for acceptance-and healing-in each other's arms.

Normal People

Der zweite Teil der Grisha-Trilogie, Leigh Bardugos Fantasy-Bestseller über die magische Armee der Grisha und den Krieg um Ravka in neuer, aufwendig veredelter Ausstattung: Nach ihrem furchtbaren Kampf gegen den Dunklen, den ältesten und mächtigsten der Grisha, mussten Alina und Mal aus Ravka fliehen. Doch selbst jenseits der Wahren See sind sie nicht sicher: Der Dunkle hat überlebt und ist entschlossener denn je, sich Alinas besondere Kräfte zunutze zu machen. Denn nur mithilfe ihrer Magie kann es ihm gelingen, den Thron von Ravka an sich zu reißen. In die Enge getrieben, bittet Alina schließlich den berüchtigten Freibeuter Stormhond um Hilfe und macht sich auf, die Armee der Grisha anzuführen. Mit ihrer Grisha-Trilogie hat Bestseller-Autorin Leigh Bardugo ein absolutes Fantasy-Highlight geschaffen, irgendwo zwischen Abenteuer, Märchen und zarter Romanze. Das vom Krieg zerrissene Ravka, das ausgeklügelte Magie-System der Grisha und die lebendigen, facettenreichen Charaktere werden nicht nur Fans der Fantasy-Bestseller »Das Lied der Krähen« und »Das Gold der Krähen« begeistern. Die Grisha-Trilogie ist in folgender Reihenfolge erschienen: • »Goldene Flammen« • »Eisige Wellen« • »Lodernde Schwingen«

Eisige Wellen

Never trust an assassin. Celaena's story continues in this second book in the #1 bestselling Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas. Celaena Sardothien won a brutal contest to become the King's Champion. But she is far from loyal to the crown. Though she goes to great lengths to hide her secret, her deadly charade becomes more difficult when she realizes she is not the only one seeking justice. Her search for answers ensnares those closest to her, and no one is safe from suspicion-not the Crown Prince Dorian; not Chaol, the Captain of the Guard; not even her best friend, Nehemia, a princess with a rebel heart. Then, one terrible night, the secrets they have all been keeping lead to an unspeakable tragedy. As Celaena's world shatters, she will be forced to decide once and for all where her true loyalties lie . . . and what she is willing to fight for. The second book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Throne of Glass series returns readers to a land destroyed by liars, where one woman's truth is the only thing that can save them all.

The Midnight Library

Het afsluitende deel van de alom bejubelde Elfhame-trilogie Verbannen, krachteloos en nog even sterfelijk als altijd probeert Jude Duarte haar leven weer op te pakken. Als het verraad van Cardan haar één ding heeft geleerd, is het wel dat macht makkelijker te verwerven is dan vast te houden. Maar Jude is allesbehalve van plan zich gewonnen te geven. Als haar tweelingzus Taryn onverwacht op de stoep staat – in levensgevaar en met een afschuwelijk geheim – vormt zich het eerste idee voor een meesterlijk plan om alles te herwinnen wat Cardan haar heeft afgenomen. Om haar zus te redden, zal Jude opnieuw moeten doordringen tot het hof van de elfen en haar gevoelens voor Cardan onder ogen zien. Maar Elfhame is niet meer zoals ze het heeft achtergelaten. Het land balanceert op het randje van oorlog en zodra Jude een stap over de grens zet, raakt ze verstrikt in een bloederig politiek conflict. Terwijl een krachtige vloek wordt ontketend en de spanningen een hoogtepunt bereiken, moet Jude voor eens en voor altijd kiezen tussen haar ambitie en haar hart. In de pers ‘De internationale fantasysensatie Elfhame verschijnt in een limited edition met veel blinkend goud.’ Het Parool ‘Verraad, liefde, politieke intriges en gekonkel; de Faerie-wereld van Holly Black heeft het allemaal. Een sinister en meedogenloos prachtig verhaal dat je in één keer uitleest.’ Wendy Sluis, De Bilthovense Boekhandel ‘Zoek je een niet al te zoetsappig boek met een badass vrouwelijk hoofdpersonage, dan is deze serie echt iets voor jou. Ik kan in ieder geval niet wachten om meer over Jude en haar avonturen te lezen!’ **** Hebban.nl
