Like me: The first time

Anne Wisløff

How do you even have sex? What if you don’t want to have sex, while everyone else acts like it has to happen now? How do you cope if the person you like likes someone else? This book is based on the sixth season of the TV series Like me. The kids are sixteen, and it’s time for sexual education at school. Sex is a subject the teenagers pretend they know all about aand have a big interest in, but what happens when it’s time to try it out in real life with someone? Neither the experience nor the emotions around it may be as expected, and what happens when everyone else thinks they know what happened and it gets shared on social media? The vulnerability of being young and inexperienced in sexuality and love are recurring themes for the characters in this book. Like Me: The First Time is about being sixteen, about unrequited love, about being naked and scared with someone else, about exploring the scary and unknown. And about trying to like yourself when everyone else does something different. Guaranteed to cause butterflies. REVIEWS ‘Anne Wisløff’s Like Me: The First Time can be the teenager’s most lovely, awkward, but also the most important reading experience of the summer.’ ‘The novel is a thorough sexual education, which in 240 pages has time to touch upon pretty much everything about sex. Consent, contraception, fetishes, toys, rape, porn, pregnancy and so on. And everything is done on the teenagers's premises.’ BOK365, ***** ‘Anne Wisløff’s new young adult novel is a sure-fire tale of the youth’s conflicts, fears, dilemmas and loves. […] In this book everything is refreshingly up to date.’ DAGBLADET, *****

Momlife

Sara Emilie Tandberg

Momlife is a book about what Sara Emilie has her greatest passion for: Making women better equipped to trust their own instincts when it comes to motherhood and just be happy about themselves, their bodies and their own efforts. There are numerous books that tell us everything about what happens with the baby inside the belly through birth through to them being old enough to stand up. But what happens to the new mom? This is what toddler mom and influencer Sara Emilie Tandberg is writing about in this funny, inspiring, and educational book, Momlife. In the book, body positive Sara Emilie share her experiences though her first years as a mother in a real, down to earth, and unpretentious way - the way we know her from social media, where she is known as the biggest “momstagrammer” with her account @saraaemiliee. Though her experiences, and facts from professionals, she aims to help young mothers to lower their shoulders and firmly believe that "Yes, I am good enough." Being a mother is the greatest joy in life, but also the greatest challenge, says Sara Emilie.

More than a club

Peder Inge Knutsen Samdal

More Than a Club is a book for anyone who loves football and wants to understand how important football is in societies all over the world. It introduces 11 clubs that are larger than life: Al-Ahly, Barcelona, Boca Juniors, Borussia Dortmund, Celtic, Liverpool, Odd, Olympique Lyonnaise Féminin, Paris Saint-Germain, Red Bull Salzburg and Vålerenga. Clubs that are, to use Barcelona's motto, ‘more than a club’. Football is more than what happens on the pitch, and the players play for more than themselves. Lyon plays for equality, the Norwegian club Odd plays for the environment, and the Argentinian club Boca Juniors also plays a little for the mafia. More Than a Club dives into what’s behind the football, and invites the readers to think critically about football, politics and society, and on the supporters's key role in the greater picture of football. Football is the most powerful sport in the world, with millions of suppoerts, and in this book the author urges the supporters to take a step back from the pitch and start the discussions about the ethical and social-critical questions tied to the sport.
