Simon Snow is the worst Chosen One who's ever been chosen. That's what his roommate, Baz, says. And Baz might be evil and a vampire and a complete git, but he's probably right. Half the time, Simon can't even make his wand work, and the other half, he starts something on fire. His mentor's avoiding him, his girlfriend broke up with him, and there's a magic-eating monster running around, wearing Simon's face. Baz would be having a field day with all this, if he were here. It's their last year at the Watford School of Magicks, and Simon's infuriating nemesis didn't even bother to show up.

The manga adaptation of the beloved novel featuring all-new scenes by Rainbow Rowell!

A heartwarming and hilarious romantic debut about falling in love from afar.

Simon Snow er den absolut værste udvalgte, der nogensinde er blevet udvalgt. Det siger hans roommate Baz i hvert fald. Og det kan godt være, at Baz er en ondsindet vampyr, men han har jo ret! Halvdelen af tiden kan Simon ikke engang få sin tryllestav til at fungere – eller også sætter han ild til ting og sager. Hans mentor gør alt for at undgå ham, hans kæreste har slået op med ham, og der er et magi-ædende monster, som går rundt med Simons ansigt på. Baz ville have nydt alt dette, hvis han altså havde været her. Det er starten på deres sidste skoleår på Watford School of Magicks, og så har Simons plageånd ikke engang besværet sig med at dukke op. CARRY ON er en spøgelseshistorie, en kærlighedshistorie og et mysterium. Der er lige så mange kys og lige så meget snak som i Rowells andre romaner – men der er mange flere monstre i den her! Rainbow Rowells roman FANGIRL handlede om pigen Cath, som brugte meget af sin tid på at skrive Simon Snow-fanfiction. Med CARRY ON får vi hele Caths historie om Simon Snow.

Cath er Simon Snow-fan – kæmpe Simon Snow-fan! Hun og hendes søster Wren levede og åndede for Simon Snow-serien, da de var børn. De læste og læste og læste. De skrev Simon Snow-fanfiction. De klædte sig ud som karaktererne til filmpremiererne. Det er Caths søster vokset fra nu. Men det er Cath ikke – hun VIL ikke vokse fra det. De to søstre skal på college, og Wren har meddelt Cath, at hun ikke gider dele værelse med hende. Så Cath står alene – helt uden for sin comfort-zone. Hun har en sur roommate med en sød kæreste, som hele tiden er i nærheden. Hun har en lækker klassekammerat, som kun gider tale om tekster. Og hun kan ikke lade være med at bekymre sig om sin far, som aldrig før har været alene. Så spørgsmålet er: Kan Cath klare livet på college uden sin søster ved hånden? Er hun klar til at starte et liv på egen hånd? Og har hun overhovedet lyst til at starte et nyt liv – uden Simon Snow?

And will everybody be on board with this major shift in the status quo? Don't bet on it!

Året er 1986. Stedet Omaha, Nebraska. 16-årige Eleanor er netop flyttet til byen med sin mor og søskende – og sin utilregnelige stedfar. Hun føler sig småtyk og forkert, og da hun stiger ind i skolebussen på sin første skoledag, falder hun omgående udenfor med sit ildrøde hår og sine bukser, der holdes sammen med sikkerhedsnåle.Der er kun én ledig plads. Ved siden af Park. Smukke og cool Park. Som også er udenfor, om end på sin egen måde. Næste dag er pladsen ved siden af Park ledig igen. Langsomt får de øjnene op for hinanden og forelsker sig, sådan som man forelsker sig for første gang, når man er 16 år.Eleanor og Park udspiller sig over et enkelt skoleår til lyden af The Smiths, U2 og Joy Division og er et udsøgt nostalgitrip for alle, der har prøvet at være forelsket. Samtidig giver romanen et helt enestående tidsbillede af årtiet med den karakteristiske musik og tøjstil - vel at mærke et årti, der endnu var komplet uberørt af smartphones, sms’er og Facebook. Et næsten utænkeligt scenario for nutidens forelskede teenagere, men der var engang, hvor man rent faktisk var nødt til at tale sammen. Og det gør Eleanor og Park.Eleanor og Park er indtil videre udkommet i England og USA til fremragende anmeldelser. Den er desuden solgt til udgivelse i en lang række europæiske lande.LEKTØRUDTALELSE"Forfatteren skriver med uhyre præcision og simple virkemidler om den allerførste kærlighed. Det er sødt, men ikke klamt - og der er et overraskende twist imod slutningen. Teenagere vil æde denne bog råt. De der var teenagere og forelskede i midtfirserne ligeså." - Lektør: Tina SchmidtPRESSEN SKREV "Bevægende roman, begavet, morsom, sexet, finurlig, forvirret og til sidst så absolut hjerteskærende. (...) Den sidste stjerne for det sublime tilbageblik og det lækre soundtrack." - ALT for damerne"Eleanor og Park« er en fin og nådesløs amerikansk historie om umulig kærlighed mellem to outsidere." - Berlingske "Sproget er charmerende præcist, og med en uhyggelig skarp fornemmelse for det unge menneskes helt særlige psykologiske konstitution. (...) Det er længslen og kærlighedsfeberen, som Eleanor og Park fremtryller så intenst og dirrende." - Weekendavisen"Den er så fantastisk, så fin, så ægte! Læs den!" - Boghjørnet"En skøn, skøn bog, jeg kan anbefale til alle, der nogensinde har været forelsket. Især hvis du var ung i 1980’erne. Køb den, lån den – jeg er ligeglad, bare du læser den!" - frk.bogorm   "Jeg læser virkelig mange gode bøger. Masser. Men ved du, hvor længe siden det er, at jeg har grædt over en bog? Det er længe siden. Jeg kan ikke engang huske hvilken." - thejulesrules"Rowell overrasker konstant og (...) fastholder romanens skrøbelige balancegang mellem det lyse og det mørke." – Publishers Weekly"(...) udviklingen i forholdet mellem Eleanor & Park er gribende, åndeløst spændende og naturligvis også hjerteskærende." – Booklist"(...) Den ultimative kærlighedshistorie. (...) Hvis du vil læse en hæsblæsende kærlighedsroman med et twist, en roman med dybe, ærlige og autentiske følelser, og en roman, du ikke kan slippe før sidste side, så skal du læse Eleanor og Park." – Boguniverset"’Eleanor og Park’ fik mig tilbage til ungdommens uskyldige år (...) Helt specielle følelser, som du aldrig nogensinde vil kunne opleve helt ægte igen, har Rainbow Rowell alligevel formået at fange i en lille tidskapsel og sender læseren tilbage til once-upon-a-time." - Andrup's bookshelf "[Eleanor og Park] har indlevelse, rigtig fin personskildring og en håbløshed af næsten Romeo og Julie-agtige dimensioner. Og så er den så underholdende og nemt skrevet, at den nærmest læser sig selv." - Bogliv
