Prijs: €21,99

A sumptuous, gothic-infused story about a marriage that is unraveled by dark secrets, a friendship cursed to end in tragedy, and the danger of believing in fairy tales—the breathtaking adult debut from New York Times bestselling author Roshani Chokshi.

Once upon a time, a man who believed in fairy tales married a beautiful, mysterious woman named Indigo Maxwell-Casteñada. He was a scholar of myths. She was heiress to a fortune. They exchanged gifts and stories and believed they would live happily ever after—and in exchange for her love, Indigo extracted a promise: that her bridegroom would never pry into her past.

But when Indigo learns that her estranged aunt is dying and the couple is forced to return to her childhood home, the House of Dreams, the bridegroom will soon find himself unable to resist. For within the crumbling manor’s extravagant rooms and musty halls, there lurks the shadow of another girl: Azure, Indigo’s dearest childhood friend who suddenly disappeared. As the house slowly reveals his wife’s secrets, the bridegroom will be forced to choose between reality and fantasy, even if doing so threatens to destroy their marriage . . . or their lives.

Combining the lush, haunting atmosphere of Mexican Gothic with the dreamy enchantment of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, The Last Tale of the Flower Bride is a spellbinding and darkly romantic page-turner about love and lies, secrets and betrayal, and the stories we tell ourselves to survive.

Ze zullen voelen hoe ik brand!’ Van Sintel wordt gezegd dat ze het teken draagt van de Vuurmoeder, de immense vulkaan die het hele koninkrijk As in haar greep houdt.

Als dochter van de tirannieke Ká weet ze als geen ander dat hun wetten hard zijn, maar dat het leven in As nog harder is. Een koninkrijk dat uit elkaar dreigt te vallen, heeft een standvastige leider nodig. Maar dan gebeurt wat ze onmogelijk achtte: haar vader valt en zijn moordenaar neemt de troon over. Opgejaagd en op de vlucht gaat Sintel op zoek naar bondgenoten. Is ze in staat om uit handen te blijven van de nieuwe Ká en wie kan ze nog vertrouwen? Eén ding weet ze zeker: dit zijn háár kroon en háár koninkrijk, en die zal ze terugkrijgen, hoeveel bloed daar ook voor moet vloeien.

Six moments lead us to two girls, one kiss, and three little words that were maybe always true in this gorgeous novel perfect for fans of Nina LaCour and Jenny Han. Penny and Tate have always clashed. Unfortunately, their mothers are lifelong best friends, so the girls’ bickering has carried them through playdates, tragedy, and more than one rom-com marathon with the Moms. When Penny’s mother decides to become a living donor to Tate’s mom, ending her wait for a liver transplant, things go from clashing to cataclysmic. Because in order to help their families recover physically, emotionally, and financially, the Moms combine their households the summer before senior year. So Penny and Tate make a pact: They’ll play nice. Be the drama-free daughters their mothers need through this scary and hopeful time. There’s only one little hitch in their plan: Penny and Tate keep almost kissing. It’s just this confusing thing that keeps happening. You know, from time to time. For basically their entire teenaged existence. They’ve never talked about it. They’ve always ignored it in the aftermath. But now they’re living across the hall from each other. And some things—like their kisses—can’t be almosts forever.

When a secret society has you in their sights, it can lead to power, privilege… or death.

It’s been two weeks since Polly St. James went missing. The police, the headmistress of Torrey-Wells Academy, and even her parents have ruled her a runaway. But not Maren, her best friend and roommate. She knows Polly had a secret that she was about to share with Maren before she disappeared― something to do with the elite, ultra-rich crowd at Torrey-Wells.

Then Maren finds an envelope hidden among Polly’s things: an invitation to the Gamemaster’s Society. Do not tell anyone, it says. Maren is certain her classmates in the Society know the truth about what happened to Polly, though it’s no easy feat to join. Once Maren’s made it through the treacherous initiation, she discovers a world she never knew existed within her school, where Society members compete in high-stakes games for unheard-of rewards―Ivy League connections, privileges, favors.

But Maren’s been drawn into a different game: for every win, she’ll receive a clue about Polly. And as Maren keeps winning, she begins to see just how powerful the Society’s game is―bigger and deadlier than she ever imagined. They see, they know, they control. And they kill.

Serie: The Davenports

The Davenports delivers a totally escapist, swoon-worthy romance while offering a glimpse into a period of African American history often overlooked. The Davenports are one of the few Black families of immense wealth and status in a changing United States, their fortune made through the entrepreneurship of William Davenport, a formerly enslaved man who founded the Davenport Carriage Company years ago. Now it’s 1910, and the Davenports live surrounded by servants, crystal chandeliers, and endless parties, finding their way and finding love—even where they’re not supposed to. There is Olivia, the beautiful elder Davenport daughter, ready to do her duty by getting married . . . until she meets the charismatic civil rights leader Washington DeWight and sparks fly. The younger daughter, Helen, is more interested in fixing cars than falling in love—unless it’s with her sister’s suitor. Amy-Rose, the childhood friend turned maid to the Davenport sisters, dreams of opening her own business—and marrying the one man she could never be with, Olivia and Helen’s brother, John. But Olivia’s best friend, Ruby, also has her sights set on John Davenport, though she can’t seem to keep his interest . . . until family pressure has her scheming to win his heart, just as someone else wins hers. Inspired by the real-life story of the Patterson family, The Davenports is the tale of four determined and passionate young Black women discovering the courage to steer their own path in life—and love.

Prijs: €22,99

Een hartverscheurend én hilarisch relaas van de iCarly-ster Jennette McCurdy over haar strubbelingen als voormalig kindster, de gecompliceerde relatie met haar manipulatieve moeder, en hoe ze de controle over haar eigen leven weer terugpakt. Jennette McCurdy was zes jaar oud toen ze haar eerste acteerauditie deed. Het was haar moeders droom dat haar enige dochter een ster zou worden, en Jennette had er alles voor over om haar moeder gelukkig te maken. Ze ging dan ook mee in al haar moeders manipulatieve grillen, ook in wat haar moeder ‘caloriebeperking’ noemde: weinig eten en zichzelf vijf keer per dag wegen. Zo ontstond er tussen hen een vreemde dynamiek, waarin haar moeder Jennette onder andere tot haar zestiende hoogstpersoonlijk onder de douche zet en ongevraagd bij haar intrekt als ze eindelijk op zichzelf gaat wonen. In Ik ben blij dat mijn moeder dood is schuwt McCurdy geen enkel pijnlijk detail uit haar jeugd. Als de droom eindelijk uitkomt en ze wordt gecast voor de nieuwe Nickelodeon-serie iCarly is haar moeder extatisch, maar wordt Jennette overspoeld door angst, schaamte en zelfhaat, wat zich uiteindelijk vertaalt in eetstoornissen, verslaving en een hoop ongezonde relaties. Het wordt alleen maar erger als haar moeder, vlak nadat ze (naast Ariana Grande) de hoofdrol krijgt in de iCarly-spinoff Sam & Cat, aan kanker overlijdt. Pas na haar dood, door therapie en door te stoppen met acteren, kan Jennette accepteren hoe ongezond en schadelijk hun relatie voor haar is geweest en lukt het om voor het eerst in haar leven écht voor zichzelf te kiezen. Verteld met een verfrissende eerlijkheid en humor is Ik ben blij dat mijn moeder dood is een inspirerend verhaal over weerbaarheid, onafhankelijkheid en het genot van je eigen haar wassen.

From Tessa Bailey-#1 New York Times bestselling author, TikTok favorite, and “the Michelangelo of dirty talk” (Entertainment Weekly)-comes a steamy small town rom-com about a starchy professor and the bubbly neighbor he clashes with at every turn… Hallie Welch fell hard for Julian Vos at fourteen, after they almost kissed in the dark vineyards of his family’s winery. Now the prodigal hottie has returned to Napa Valley and when Hallie is hired to revamp the gardens on the Vos estate, she wonders if she’ll finally get that smooch.

But the grumpy professor isn’t the teenager she remembers and their polar opposite personalities clash spectacularly. One wine-fueled girls’ night later, Hallie can’t shake the sense that she did something reckless-and then she remembers the drunken secret admirer letter she left for Julian. Oh shit.

On sabbatical from his ivy league job, Julian plans to write a novel. But having Hallie gardening right outside his window is the ultimate distraction. She’s eccentric, chronically late, often literally covered in dirt-and so unbelievably beautiful, he can’t focus on anything else.

Until he finds an anonymous letter sent by a woman from his past. Even as Julian wonders about this admirer, he’s sucked further into Hallie’s orbit. Like the flowers she plants all over town, Hallie is a burst of color in Julian’s grayscale life.

For a man who irons his socks and runs on tight schedules, her sunny chaotic energy makes zero sense. But there’s something so familiar about her… and her very presence is turning his world upside down.
