A dreary castle, blood-thirsty vampires, open graves at midnight, and other gothic touches fill this chilling tale about a young Englishman's confrontation with the evil Count Dracula. A horror romance as deathless as any vampire, the blood-curdling tale still continues to hold readers spellbound a century later.
Hollywood, Ending on tarkkanäköinen romaani julkisen ja yksityisen elämän välisestä jännitteestä ja toiveesta löytää luotettava ihmissuhde. Herkkä, sydäntä särkevä ja ovelasti hauska – tämä on tarina, jonka vain John Green voi kertoa. Nouseville nuorille näyttelijöille Kai Laramielle ja Juniper Castillolle roolit suositussa elämäkertaelokuvassa Andy Warhol Never Gets Old on tilaisuus, jota he molemmat ovat odottaneet. He ovat läpimurron ja ehkä myös rakastumisen partaalla. Elokuva on valtava menestys, ja se muuttaa heidän elämänsä – jännittävällä, mutta myös kauhistuttavalla tavalla. John Green yhdistää taitavasti kulissien takaisen Hollywood-rakkaustarinan kyltymättömän huomiotalouden tarkasteluun. Kahden näkökulman kautta kerrottu romaani seuraa Kaita ja Juniperia ensimmäisistä päivistä kuvauspaikalla elokuvan ensi-iltaan asti.
For rising young actors Kai Laramie and Juniper Castillo, being cast in the buzzy biopic Andy Warhol Never Gets Old is the opportunity they’ve both been waiting for. They’re on the verge of breaking out, and maybe even falling in love. Soon, the movie is blowing up, and so are their lives—in exciting, but also terrifying, ways. John Green artfully blends a behind-the-scenes Hollywood love story with an unflinching examination of the insatiable attention economy. Told through dual points of view, the novel follows Kai and Juniper from the first days on location to the movie’s premiere, brilliantly juxtaposing their story with the on-screen study of Warhol’s life at the dawn of celebrity culture. Hollywood, Ending is a deeply observed novel about the tension between a public and a private life, and finding your safe someone to hold onto. Tender, heartbreaking, and shrewdly funny, this is a story as only John Green can tell it.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION #1 New York Times bestseller - #1 Washington Post bestseller - #1 Indie Bestseller - USA Today Bestseller John Green, award-winning author and passionate advocate for global healthcare reform, tells a deeply human story illuminating the fight against the world's deadliest infectious disease. AN ACCLAIMED BEST BOOK OF 2025: NPR, Scientific American, Science News, Booklist, BookPage, Chicago Sun-Times. Goodreads Readers' Choice Nonfiction Winner. Tuberculosis has been entwined with humanity for millennia. Once romanticized as a malady of poets, today tuberculosis is seen as a disease of poverty that walks the trails of injustice and inequity we blazed for it. In 2019, author John Green met Henry Reider, a young tuberculosis patient at Lakka Government Hospital in Sierra Leone. John became fast friends with Henry, a boy with spindly legs and a big, goofy smile. In the years since that first visit to Lakka, Green has become a vocal advocate for increased access to treatment and wider awareness of the healthcare inequities that allow this curable, preventable infectious disease to also be the deadliest, killing over a million people every year. In Everything Is Tuberculosis, John tells Henry's story, woven through with the scientific and social histories of how tuberculosis has shaped our world--and how our choices will shape the future of tuberculosis.

Hazel är 17 år och kommer aldrig att bli frisk igen. Det har hon vetat sedan dagen då hon fick sin cancerdiagnos för tre år sedan. Hazels mamma är orolig för att Hazel ska missbruka Americas Next Top Model och bli allt mer isolerad hemma vid teven. Depression är ju en vanlig bieffekt till cancer har hon läst (Hazel menar att det inte är cancern som gör henne deppig - det är vetskapen om att hon ska dö). Lösningen blir att anmäla Hazel till kyrkans stödgrupp för unga med cancer. Men mötena visar sig vara allt annat än uppiggande och följer ungefär samma mönster som ett AA-möte. Men en eftermiddag i den där stödgruppen förändras livet. Augustus Waters, friskförklarad från sin cancer, dyker upp. Hazel möter Augustus Waters blick och deras kärlekshistoria ska komma att bli en sådan som poeterna diktar om. E p i s k. Det här är en berättelse om cancer, visst, men det är framförallt en förkrossande vacker och gripande historia om livet, Hazel Grace och Gus. Om att vara ung och ändå stå med ena foten i graven. Om att tro att man aldrig mer kommer att bli glatt överraskade. Om att få sin sista önskan uppfylld. Att få beröras på så många sätt, skratta, komma till insikter och gråta, är litteratur när den är som allra bäst. Här kan du se John Green prata om det svenska omslaget: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=coAa_HtrmNk"Jag älskade den här boken. Älskade! [...] Det här kan vara en av de bästa böckerna jag någonsin läst, faktiskt. Författaren Lisa Bjärbo, bloggen Onekligen

Alex Russell is regarded as perhaps Australia's finest ever home-grown golf course architect. He served as the Australian partner of the famed Scottish architect Dr Alister MacKenzie in the design and construction of the West Course at Royal Melbourne Golf Club, and was solely responsible for the design of Yarra Yarra, Royal Melbourne's East Course, Lake Karrinyup in Perth and Paraparaumu Beach in New Zealand, all highly rated courses. However, he is important to the story of Australian golf for much more than just golf course design as he was a champion golfer, winning the 1924 Australian Open as an amateur, amongst numerous other national and state titles. Discovering Alex Russell: The Man and his Legacy by Neil Crafter and John Green uses detailed text, period archival photographs, maps and plans to bring together the many threads of Russell's life from his birth as the son of a wealthy Victorian grazier, to his education at Geelong Grammar and Cambridge, and his distinguished service as an artillery officer in the British Army in World War I, finishing the war as a Major in charge of his own battery after recovering from significant injuries caused by an incoming German shell. The book examines Russell's political life and his subsequent service in World War II where he was in charge of repatriating prisoners of war for the Australian Red Cross, together with his family life and the grazing property 'Mawallok' in Victoria's Western District. Discovering Alex Russell is a handsomely illustrated and detailed biography of a man who did so much for golf in Australia. It is a fascinating way to discover more about Alex Russell the man, his life and his golf courses.
