La primera colección de cuentos por la autora bestseller #1 del New York Times
Rainbow Rowell ha acumulado lectores alrededor del mundo por su manera tan auténtica de escribir sobre el amor y la vida.
En su primera colección de cuentos, Rainbow nos regala nueve historias de amor bellamente narradas. Una chica conoce a un chico acampando fuera de un cine. Mejores amigos discuten sobre los méritos de los bailes escolares. Un príncipe enamora a una troll. Una chica enamora a un chico imaginario. Y el mismísimo Simon Snow regresa para una aventura navideña.
Este es un festín de personajes irresistibles, diálogos hilarantes y una narrativa espectacular. En resumen, todo aquello que se esperaría de un libro de Rainbow Rowell.
“Rainbow Rowell es una genio por crear personajes imperfectos de los que los lectores, sin embargo, se enamoran”.
—Reseña del New York Times sobre Pumpkinheads. La última noche
Zwei gegen den Rest der Welt ... Sie sind zwei völlig verschiedene Außenseiter: Eleanor ist dick, hat wirre rote Locken und trägt weite Herren-T-Shirts. Park ist gutaussehend, zurückhaltend, Halb-Koreaner. Nur notgedrungen macht er im Schulbus für sie den Platz neben sich frei, liest seine Comics oder hört Musik. Eleanor ist froh, nur ignoriert statt gemobbt zu werden. Sie kommt aus einer desolaten Familie, Park aus einer gut bürgerlichen. Als sie beginnt, im Bus Parks Comics mitzulesen, entwickelt sich ein Dialog zwischen den beiden. Zögerlich tauschen sie Lieblingskassetten aus. Dass sie sich ineinander verlieben überwältigt und verwirrt beide.
Vamos, Simon Snow.
Tu camino como héroe podrá haber terminado...
Pero tu vida apenas comienza.
EL BESTSELLER #1 INSTANTÁNEO DEL NEW YORK TIMES
Y LA ANSIOSAMENTE ESPERADA SECUELA DE CARRY ON.
Se suponía que la historia había terminado.
Simon Snow hizo todo lo que se suponía que tenía que hacer. Venció al villano. Ganó la guerra. Incluso se enamoró. Ahora sigue la mejor parte, ¿cierto? Ahora sigue el felices para siempre# Entonces, ¿por qué Simon Snow es incapaz de levantarse del sillón?
Lo que necesita, según sus amigos, es un cambio de panorama. Sólo necesita verse a sí mismo bajo una nueva luz... Esa es la razón por la que Simon, Penny y Baz terminan en un convertible vintage, atravesando el oeste de Estados Unidos. Encuentran aventuras, por supuesto (dragones, vampiros, seres con cabeza de zorrillo que cargan escopetas). Y se pierden. Se pierden tanto que comienzan a preguntarse si, para empezar, alguna vez supieron hacia dónde se dirigían...
Carry On es una historia de amor, profecías, fantasmas y misterio. Tiene todo lo que esperamos de un libro de Rainbow Rowell... pero con muchos más monstruos.
Bestseller #1 de The New York Times. Elegido como Mejor Libro YA 2015 por la revista Time, School Library Journal y por Barnes & Noble.
El nuevo libro de Rainbow Rowell, con dos de los personajes que conociste en Fangirl.
Simon Snow es el mago más poderoso del mundo, tiene diecisiete años y es el Elegido, el único que puede salvar la magia. La verdad: Simon es el peor Elegido que a nadie se le pudo haber ocurrido.
Lo único que Simon quiere es disfrutar de su último año en Watford antes de morir como un héroe, pero no hay manera. Su novia truena con él, su mejor amiga quiere que huya, su mentor lo evita... y Baz, su archienemigo, se la pasaría en grande a su costa, pero este año ni siquiera se ha dignado a aparecer por la escuela, el muy idiota. Y Baz será malvado y un vampiro y un imbécil, pero tiene razón: la mayor parte del tiempo Simon ni siquiera puede controlar su magia, ¿y se supone que va a salvar al mundo?
LA FANTASÍA ÉPICA DE RAINBOW ROWELL, AUTORA BESTSELLER DEL NEW YORK TIMES.
LA TRILOGÍA SIMON SNOW TERMINA CON: ANY WAY THE WIND BLOWS
En Carry On, Simon Snow y sus amigos se dieron cuenta de que todo lo que sabían sobre el mundoestaba equivocado. En Wayward Son, se preguntaron si todo lo que sabían sobre sí mismos estaba equivocado. En Any Way the Wind Blows, Simon y Baz y Penelope y Agatha tienen que elegir cómo seguir adelante. Para Simon, eso significa decidir si quiere pertenecer al Mundo de los Magos y si decide no hacerlo, ¿cómo afectará su relación con Baz? Mientras tanto, Baz salta de una crisis familiar a otra, sin poder encontrar el tiempo para hablar con alguien sobre su nuevo conocimiento vampírico. A Penelope le encantaría ayudarlo, pero ha infiltrado un Normal estadounidense en Londres y ahora no sabe qué hacer con él. Y Agatha... bueno, Agatha ya tuvo suficiente. Any Way the Wind Blows lleva al grupo de vuelta a Inglaterra, a Watford, y a sus familias para su aventura más larga y más desgarradora hasta el momento. Este libro es un final. Cuenta secretos y responde preguntas y pone a los fantasmas a dormir. Es un final sobre finales, sobre catarsis y cerrar ciclos, y sobre cómo continuar desde los traumas y las victorias que nos quieren definir.
Rainbow Rowell has won fans all over the world by writing about love and life in a way that feels true. In her first short story collection Scattered Showers, she gives us nine beautifully crafted love stories.
Girl meets boy camping outside a movie theater. Best friends debate the merits of high school dances. A prince romances a troll. A girl romances an imaginary boy. And Simon Snow himself returns for a holiday adventure.
It’s a feast of irresistible characters, hilarious dialogue, and masterful storytelling, in short, everything you’d expect from a Rainbow Rowell book.
In Carry On, Simon Snow and his friends realized that everything they thought they understood about the world might be wrong. And in Wayward Son, they wondered whether everything they understood about themselves might be wrong.
In Any Way the Wind Blows, Simon and Baz and Penelope and Agatha have to decide how to move forward.
For Simon, that means deciding whether he still wants to be part of the World of Mages – and if he doesn't, what does that mean for his relationship with Baz? Meanwhile Baz is bouncing between two family crises and not finding any time to talk to anyone about his newfound vampire knowledge. Penelope would love to help, but she's smuggled an American Normal into London, and now she isn't sure what to do with him. And Agatha? Well, Agatha Wellbelove has had enough.
Any Way the Wind Blows takes the gang back to England, back to Watford, and back to their families for their longest and most emotionally wrenching adventure yet.
This book is a finale. It tells secrets and answers questions and lays ghosts to rest.
Carry On was conceived as a book about Chosen One stories; Any Way the Wind Blows is an ending about endings. About catharsis and closure, and how we choose to move on from the traumas and triumphs that try to define us.
Wayward Son is the stunning YA novel by the bestselling author of Fangirl, Rainbow Rowell. With all of her signature wit and heart, this is Rainbow at her absolute best.
The story is supposed to be over.
Simon Snow did everything he was supposed to do. He beat the villain. He won the war. He even fell in love. Now comes the good part, right? Now comes the happily ever after . . .
So why can't Simon Snow get off the couch?
What he needs, according to his best friend, is a change of scenery. He just needs to see himself in a new light . . .
That's how Simon and Penny and Baz end up in a vintage convertible, tearing across the American West. They find trouble, of course. (Dragons, vampires, skunk-headed things with shotguns.) And they get lost. They get so lost, they start to wonder whether they ever knew where they were headed in the first place . . .
With Wayward Son, the sequel to Carry On, Rainbow Rowell has written a book for everyone who ever wondered what happened to the Chosen One after he saved the day. And a book for everyone who was ever more curious about the second kiss than the first.
Come on, Simon Snow. Your hero's journey might be over - but your life has just begun.
Written by New York Times best-selling author Christopher Golden, Runaways is a fresh take on the Marvel fan favorite. This audiobook includes a bonus PDF with the first issue of the revived Runaways comic series written by Rainbow Rowell with art by Kris Anka. It's easy for fans of the comics, fans of the new Hulu TV show, and first-timers to all enjoy this new take on an old classic.
"The Pride, back in L.A.? Their parents, alive? Karolina had never realized hope and fear could feel so much alike."
Turns out murderous Super Villains don't make for good parents. The Runaways had no choice. They had to kill them. Well, more or less. Now Nico, Karolina, Gert, Chase, and Molly are on the run again, hiding out and trying to regain a sense of normalcy. But kids with super powers don't get to be normal.
The city is overrun with criminals, each faction bent on murdering them for one reason or another. It's only when the Runaways uncover the truth behind their parents' past that they realize the evil isn't just in L.A.
It's everywhere.
Narrated by Virginia Gardner, who plays Karolina Dean on Hulu's Runaways!
A love story about opening your heart by Rainbow Rowell, the New York Times bestselling author of Eleanor & Park.
Cath and Wren are identical twins, and until recently they did absolutely everything together. Now they're off to university and Wren's decided she doesn't want to be one half of a pair any more - she wants to dance, meet boys, go to parties and let loose. It's not so easy for Cath. She's horribly shy and has always buried herself in the fan fiction she writes, where she always knows exactly what to say and can write a romance far more intense than anything she's experienced in real life.
Without Wren Cath is completely on her own and totally outside her comfort zone. She's got a surly room-mate with a charming, always-around boyfriend, a fiction-writing professor who thinks fan fiction is the end of the civilized world, a handsome classmate who only wants to talk about words . . . And she can't stop worrying about her dad, who's loving and fragile and has never really been alone.
Now Cath has to decide whether she's ready to open her heart to new people and new experiences, and she's realizing that there's more to learn about love than she ever thought possible . . .
Fangirl now comes with special bonus material; the first chapter from Rainbow's irresistible novel Carry On.
Based on the characters Simon and Baz who featured in Rainbow Rowell's bestselling Fangirl, Carry On is a ghost story, a love story, a mystery and a melodrama. It has just as much kissing and talking as you'd expect from a Rainbow Rowell story - but far, far more monsters.
Simon Snow just wants to relax and savour his last year at the Watford School of Magicks, but no one will let him. His girlfriend broke up with him, his best friend is a pest and his mentor keeps trying to hide him away in the mountains where maybe he'll be safe. Simon can't even enjoy the fact that his room-mate and longtime nemesis is missing, because he can't stop worrying about the evil git. Plus there are ghosts. And vampires. And actual evil things trying to shut Simon down. When you're the most powerful magician the world has ever known, you never get to relax and savour anything.
