Celebrity Crush

Kirsti Kristoffersen

What if your crush suddenly became the most famous person in the country? Celebrity Crush is the first book in a trilogy by Kirsti Kristoffersen, who probably knows more about fan culture that almost anyone else in Norway. Hanging out with Grandma at a remote campground was not exactly how Karoline had pictured spending her summer vacation, but here she is. On Instagram everyone else is obviously having a way better summer than her – including her increasingly distant best friend. But then she meets Mathias. Mathias is cute, funny and kind – and Karoline falls hard. Everything is perfect, but there’s something a bit odd about Mathias. What is he hiding? The scene is set for love, drama and a shock. First love, first kiss, and a campground. Hurray for teen love! - *****Co-reviewer Molly Nagel [12 years old] is in the target audience and sped through the book in record time. And was delighted. 'I can’t wait to read the next two books. I give it a five out of six stars!'NETTAVISEN Celebrity crush is a feelgood holiday read for teenagers. […] The novel evokes the feeling that ‘anything’ can happen on summer holiday, regardless of where you are. Kristoffersen puts into words what many experience at that age, to not know whether the friendship will survive growth and development. The book engages me and makes me almost – almost – nostalgic about that first all-consuming love.PERISKOP.NO

The Turbo Twins and the Great Dodgeball Battle

Robert Stoltenberg / Harald Maxmillian Stoltenberg

Turbo Twins Robert and Harald have to move from the big city to the countryside, because their mother gets a whim and needs more space for her thoughts. The house they’re moving to is run down, has an outdoor toilet and the whole area smells like cow dung. The Turbo Twins look forward to starting a new school, but already on their first day it turns out the entire school and everyone in the village is completely obsessed with one single ting: DODGEBALL. In addition to this, the twins end up in the same class as the school bully and dodgeball state champion, Sølvi. Sølvi challenges the twins to create their own dodgeball team and sign up for the big tournament that takes place every year. But who should be on their team? What happened to the new boy in their class who disappeared without a trace after the last tournament? And how in the world do you even play dodgeball? The Turbo Twins and the Great Dodgeball Battle is hysterically funny and heart-warming story about being a good brother, a good friend, and a good person. «One of the most fast-paced and fun books of 2022.»VG, FIVE/SIX STARS «It's obvious that the authors have wished to write an easily read, plot-driven story. The 34 chapters contain few dead points, and the text is tightly composed with the preparations for the Dodgeball Battle as the red thread. The story is full of dialogues in an oral language that flows well, and the end of each chapter contains small cliffhangers that makes me curious as to what will happen next.»PERISKOP

Benny and the Mystery of Camp Milky Way

Tom Erik Fure

Benny and the Mystery of Camp Milky Way is the third book in the Benny Bark series. It’s the perfect book for fans of David Walliams and Tom Fletcher. For his birthday Benny receives the most incredible birthday gift: a weekend getaway at the luxurious Milky Way Hotel & Resort, situated in Tjess Valley, world-renowned for its UFO phenomena. Of course, in true Benny fashion, nothing goes according to plan when it turns out he is not, in fact, staying at a luxury hotel, but at the extremely dilapidated Camp Milky Way, where he must contend with roommates who can’t stand each other, outdoor toilets, and the resident loonies. Other things not on his birthday wish list: an unhinged horse, Evan the Ice Prince, communal showers, and mysterious fires of possible alien origin! The question is no longer: Is there alien life in Tjess Valley? The question is: Will Benny even survive his twelfth birthday?

Locotopia in the Classical antiquity

Simon Stranger

Welcome to the Classical antiquity. This book is ONLY about antique furniture: antique watches, chairs, couches etc., so there is no point in reading on. Just kidding! Simon and Helena start this story as slaves owned by a nice and reform-friendly slave owner called Reformius. But once more there is a murder (that of Reformius) and once more Simon and Helena get blamed (rude!). They have to run away so they can find a way to clear their own names, and find out why anyone would want Reformius dead. A wild journey ensues, through Plato’s cave, and to Athens just as they are celebrating the end of the Spartan war. It’s total chaos, and the two friends lose each other in the masses. Simon is suddenly on a ship with Odysseus (he says), while Helena has to dress as a soldier to get food and accidentally gets recruited for the war in Asia. How will they get back? Will they find a way to reunite? Can they uncover the conspiracy that killed Reformius? Will Simon win a gold medal, while naked, at the Olympics? (Let’s be honest, that last one seems very unlikely…) The history of the world continues in this hilarious series. The Greek philosophers have never been funnier. The Olympics has never been wilder. The Democracy has never been crazier. And Socrates has never been more irritating…
