Rainbow Rowell

    24 februari 1973

    Rainbow Rowell schrijft verhalen over mensen die veel praten, het gevoel hebben dat ze alles verprutsen en verliefd worden. Haar werk verkent vaak de complexiteit van menselijke relaties en emotionele kwetsbaarheid, of ze nu volwassenen of tieners afbeeldt. Rowell vangt vakkundig de nuances van menselijke gevoelens, verweeft ze met humor en hart om gedenkwaardige verhalen te creëren. Haar kenmerkende schrijfstijl verrijkt het literaire landschap met charmante en herkenbare karakterportretten die diep resoneren bij de lezers.

      NIMONA is een impulsieve jonge gedaanteverwisselaar met een uitzonderlijk talent voor schurkenstreken, die zich besluit op te dringen als sidekick aan superschurk BALLISTER ZWARTHART zodat ze samen zijn snode plannen naar een hoger niveau kunnen tillen. Hun missie: bewijzen dat heer Ambrosius Goudzak en zijn collega’s van het Instituut voor Rechtshandhaving & Heldendom niet de helden zijn die ze pretenderen te zijn. Als hun plan escaleert en de hele samenleving in gevaar brengt, realiseert Zwarthart zich dat Nimona’s gave net zo duister en mysterieus is als haar verleden. En dat haar wilde, onvoorspelbare kant misschien wel gevaarlijker is dan hij wil toegeven... Dit en meer vind je in deze briljante graphic novel van Noelle Stevenson, die al je verwachtingen over het genre omverschopt.

      Cath is fan van Simon Snow, maar zo zijn er wel meer. Het enige verschil is dat een Simon Snow-fan zijn voor Cath net zo veel betekent als kunnen ademen voor de rest van de mensheid. Als Cath niet over Simon Snow leest, in boeken waarin hij de hoofdpersoon is of op forums, dan schrijft ze fanfictie of verkleedt ze zich als een van de personages uit de films.Tot nu toe was haar tweelingzus Wren net zo gek op Simon Snow, maar nu ze gaan studeren is het fangirlen er voor Wren wel een beetje af. Cath zal nu dus alleen door haar veelal fictieve leven moeten gaan. Maar is ze daar wel klaar voor? Haar nieuwe kamergenoot Reagan is in ieder geval vastbesloten om Cath een handje te helpen. Samen trekken ze ten strijde tegen veeleisende docenten, manische ouders en sluimerende verliefdheden en komt Cath erachter dat nerd zijn eigenlijk wel heel cool is.

    • Simon Snow just wants to relax and savour his last year at the Watford School of Magicks, but no one will let him. His girlfriend broke up with him, his best friend is a pest and his mentor keeps trying to hide him away in the mountains where maybe he'll be safe. Simon can't even enjoy the fact that his room-mate and longtime nemesis is missing, because he can't stop worrying about the evil git. Plus there are ghosts. And vampires. And actual evil things trying to shut Simon down. When you're the most powerful magician the world has ever known, you never get to relax and savour anything. Carry On is a ghost story, a love story, a mystery and a melodrama. It has just as much kissing and talking as you'd expect from a Rainbow Rowell story - but far, far more monsters.
