Nya YA-boksläpp 23/4 - 29/4

Här kommer denna veckans nya YA-boksläpp! :) Som ni kommer att märka har vi gjort lite ändringar från hur våra tidigare boksläpp har sett ut. För att det inte ska bli för jobbigt med så mycket text väljer vi istället att plocka ut några stycken som vi tycker verkar bäst och bara skriva ut allt som står om dem och längst ner i inlägget lägger vi sedan bilder på de andra böcker som också släpps. Vill ni läsa mer om de böckerna är det bara att klicka på bilden så hamnar ni direkt på bokens Goodreads-sida :)

The Immortal Rules (Blood of Eden #1) - Julie Kagawa
Releasedatum: 24 april, 2012
Goodreads: The Immortal Rules

In a future world, Vampires reign. Humans are blood cattle. And one girl will search for the key to save humanity.

Allison Sekemoto survives in the Fringe, the outermost circle of a vampire city. By day, she and her crew scavenge for food. By night, any one of them could be eaten.

Some days, all that drives Allie is her hatred of them. The vampires who keep humans as blood cattle. Until the night Allie herself is attacked—and given the ultimate choice. Die… or become one of the monsters.

Faced with her own mortality, Allie becomes what she despises most. To survive, she must learn the rules of being immortal, including the most important: go long enough without human blood, and you will go mad.

Then Allie is forced to flee into the unknown, outside her city walls. There she joins a ragged band of humans who are seeking a legend—a possible cure to the disease that killed off most of humankind and created the rabids, the mindless creatures who threaten humans and vampires alike.

But it isn't easy to pass for human. Especially not around Zeke, who might see past the monster inside her. And Allie soon must decide what—and who—is worth dying for.

Cricket’s future stepsisters make it clear they’re not happy about the marriage. An old friend decides this is the week to declare his love for Cricket. Grandpa chooses to reveal a big secret at a family gathering. Dan’s ex-wife shows up. And even the dogs—Cricket’s old, ill Jupiter and Dan’s young, lively Cruiser—seem to be declaring war.

While Cricket fears that Dan is in danger of becoming ditched husband-to-be number three, she’s also alarmed by her own desires. Because even though her boyfriend looms large in her mind, Ash is right in front of her....

Can she reach deep enough to remember that night so she can finally break free?

So what does Araby Worth have to live for?

Nights in the Debauchery Club, beautiful dresses, glittery make-up . . . and tantalizing ways to forget it all.

But in the depths of the club—in the depths of her own despair—Araby will find more than oblivion. She will find Will, the terribly handsome proprietor of the club. And Elliott, the wickedly smart aristocrat. Neither boy is what he seems. Both have secrets. Everyone does.

Night Beach - Kirsty Eagar
Releasedatum: 26 april, 2012
Goodreads: Night Beach

Imagine there is someone you like so much that just thinking about them leaves you desperate and reckless. You crave them in a way that's not rational, not right, and you're becoming somebody you don't recognise, and certainly don't respect, but you don't even care.

And this person you like is unattainable. Except for one thing...

He lives downstairs.

Abbie has three obsessions. Art. The ocean. And Kane.

But since Kane's been back, he's changed. There's a darkness shadowing him that only Abbie can see. And it wants her in its world.

A gothic story about the very dark things that feed the creative process.



Dansa på min grav - Aidan Chambers
Releasedatum: 27 april, 2012
Originaltitel: Dance on My Grave

Hal är 16 år och har nyligen flyttat till en turistort vid engelska kusten med sina föräldrar. Han har haft svårt att få nya vänner, men träffar snart den två år äldre Barry som visar Hal hur spännande livet faktiskt kan vara. Barrys behov att utmana ödet både skrämmer och trollbinder Hal, och deras vänskap utvecklas snart till något mer än bara vänskap. För Hal är det här den första stora kärleken, medan Barry är en erfaren livsnjutare som minst av allt vill känna sig bunden.

När Barry omkommer i en svår mc-olycka försöker Hal bearbeta sorgen på sitt eget vis. Efter att ha blivit arresterad för gravskändning tvingas Hal skriva ner sina tankar och känslor för att förklara bakgrunden till sitt agerande. Men det är svårt att förklara att allt han gjorde var att infria ett löfte till en älskad vän, att han svurit en ed att dansa på Barrys grav.

En efterlängtad nyutgivning om vänskap, kärlek, sex och klivet in i vuxenlivet.
