Best Selling Books by Jennifer Niven

A New York Times Bestseller From the author of the New York Times bestseller All the Bright Places comes a heart-wrenching story about what it means to see someone—and love someone—for who they truly are. Everyone thinks they know Libby Strout, the girl once dubbed “America’s Fattest Teen.” But no one’s taken the time to look past her weight to get to know who she really is. Following her mom’s death, she’s been picking up the pieces in the privacy of her home, dealing with her heartbroken father and her own grief. Now, Libby’s ready: for high school, for new friends, for love, and for EVERY POSSIBILITY LIFE HAS TO OFFER. In that moment, I know the part I want to play here at MVB High. I want to be the girl who can do anything. Everyone thinks they know Jack Masselin, too. Yes, he’s got swagger, but he’s also mastered the impossible art of giving people what they want, of fitting in. What no one knows is that Jack has a newly acquired secret: he can’t recognize faces. Even his own brothers are strangers to him. He’s the guy who can re-engineer and rebuild anything in new and bad-ass ways, but he can’t understand what’s going on with the inner workings of his brain. So he tells himself to play it cool: Be charming. Be hilarious. Don’t get too close to anyone. Until he meets Libby. When the two get tangled up in a cruel high school game—which lands them in group counseling and community service—Libby and Jack are both pissed, and then surprised. Because the more time they spend together, the less alone they feel. . . . Because sometimes when you meet someone, it changes the world, theirs and yours. Jennifer Niven delivers another poignant, exhilarating love story about finding that person who sees you for who you are—and seeing them right back. "Niven is adept at creating characters. . . . [Libby''s] courage and body-positivity make for a joyful reading experience." --The New York Times “Holding Up the Universe . . . taps into the universal need to be understood. To be wanted. And that’s what makes it such a remarkable read.” —TeenVogue.com, “Why New Book Holding Up the Universe Is the Next The Fault in Our Stars” "Want a love story that will give you all the feels? . . .

The New York Times bestselling author of All the Bright Places—soon to be a Netflix film starring Elle Fanning—presents a coming-of-age debut about ill-fated love during the Great Depression—and what it means to be a woman with ambition. Velva Jean’s mother urged her to “live out there in the great wide world,” and growing up in Appalachia in the years before World War II, Velva Jean dreams of becoming a big-time singer in Nashville. Then she falls in love with Harley Bright, a handsome juvenile delinquent turned revival preacher. As their tumultuous love story unfolds, Velva Jean must choose between keeping her hard-won home and pursuing her dream of singing in the Grand Ole Opry. Like All the Bright Places, hailed as a “charming love story about [an] unlikely and endearing pair” (New York Times Book Review), Jennifer Niven’s debut novel is a big-hearted story about the struggle to find happiness.

Jennifer Niven quit her job as a television producer to write the true story of a doomed 1913 Arctic expedition in her first book, The Ice Master, which was named one of the top ten nonfiction books by Entertainment Weekly, and won the Barnes & Noble Discover Award. She received high praise for her follow- up arctic adventure, Ada Blackjack, which detailed the life of one woman who overcame enormous odds to survive. Now, Niven tells a survival tale of a different kind; her own thrilling, excruciating, amazing, and utterly unforgettable adventure in a midwestern high school during the 1980s. Richmond, Indiana, was a place where people knew their neighbors and went to church on Sundays. It also had only one high school with 2,500 students, and for both the students and the townspeople, it was the center of the universe. In The Aqua-Net Diaries, Niven takes readers through her adolescent years in full, glorious—and hilarious—detail, sharing awkward moments from the first day of school, to driver’s ed, and her first love, against a backdrop of bad 1980s fashion and big hair. Like Chuck Klosterman in Fargo Rock City, Niven’s talented voice perfectly captures the pain, joy, and shame of going through adolescence in America’s heartland, making a funny, touching, and universal experience.

From the New York Times bestselling author of All the Bright Places—soon to be a Netflix film starring Elle Fanning—comes the story of a fearless and spirited World War II pilot who boldly sets her sights on movie stardom. In 1945, Velva Jean Hart is a bona fide war heroine. After a newsreel films her triumphant return to America, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer promises to make her a star.

But when one of her best friends dies mysteriously and the most powerful studio in the world launches a cover-up, Velva Jean goes in search of the truth—risking her own life, as well as her heart, in the process.

The Karluk set out in 1913 in search of an undiscovered continent, with the largest scientific staff ever sent into the Arctic. Soon after, winter had begun, they were blown off course by polar storms, the ship became imprisoned in ice, and the expedition was abandoned by its leader. Hundreds of miles from civilization, the castaways had no choice but to find solid ground as they struggled against starvation, snow blindness, disease, exposure--and each other. After almost twelve months battling the elements, twelve survivors were rescued, thanks to the heroic efforts of their captain, Bartlett, the Ice Master, who traveled by foot across the ice and through Siberia to find help. Drawing on the diaries of those who were rescued and those who perished, Jennifer Niven re-creates with astonishing accuracy the ill-fated journey and the crews desperate attempts to find a way home.

From the author of The Ice Master comes the remarkable true story of a young Inuit woman who survived six months alone on a desolate, uninhabited Arctic island In September 1921, four young men and Ada Blackjack, a diminutive 25-year-old Eskimo woman, ventured deep into the Arctic in a secret attempt to colonize desolate Wrangel Island for Great Britain. Two years later, Ada Blackjack emerged as the sole survivor of this ambitious polar expedition. This young, unskilled woman--who had headed to the Arctic in search of money and a husband--conquered the seemingly unconquerable north and survived all alone after her male companions had perished. Following her triumphant return to civilization, the international press proclaimed her the female Robinson Crusoe. But whatever stories the press turned out came from the imaginations of reporters: Ada Blackjack refused to speak to anyone about her horrific two years in the Arctic. Only on one occasion--after charges were published falsely accusing her of causing the death of one her companions--did she speak up for herself. Jennifer Niven has created an absorbing, compelling history of this remarkable woman, taking full advantage of the wealth of first-hand resources about Ada that exist, including her never-before-seen diaries, the unpublished diaries from other primary characters, and interviews with Ada''s surviving son. Ada Blackjack is more than a rugged tale of a woman battling the elements to survive in the frozen north--it is the story of a hero.

From the New York Times bestselling authors of All the Bright Places and Every Day comes a story of hope, siblinghood, and finding your home in the people who matter the most. Subject: You. Missing.

As things unravel at home for Ezra, Bea will confront secrets about their past that will forever change the way they think about their family. Together and apart, broken by abuse but connected by love, this brother and sister must learn to trust themselves before they can find a way back to each other.

Junte um pedaço de amizade com outro de autoaceitação, mais outro de amor e ainda um de esperança – todos juntos compõem a história de Libby e Jack. Jack tem prosopagnosia, uma doença que o impede de reconhecer o rosto das pessoas. Quando ele olha para alguém, vê os olhos, o nariz, a boca... mas não consegue juntar todas as peças do quebra-cabeça para gravar na memória. Então ele usa marcas identificadoras, como o cabelo, a cor da pele, o jeito de andar e de se vestir, para tentar distinguir seus amigos e familiares. Mas ninguém sabe disso – até o dia em que ele encontra Libby. Libby é nova na escola. Ela passou os últimos anos em casa, juntando os pedaços do seu coração depois da morte de sua mãe. A garota finalmente se sente pronta para voltar à vida normal, mas logo nos primeiros dias de aula é alvo de uma brincadeira cruel por causa de seu peso e vai parar na diretoria. Junto com Jack. Aos poucos essa dupla improvável se aproxima e, juntos, eles aprendem a enxergar um ao outro como ninguém antes tinha feito.

O amor verdadeiro é como o universo: não tem fim. Da autora de Fala-me de um dia perfeito chega-nos uma história tocante de superação e esperança. Por vezes, conhecemos alguém que nos transforma e que muda tudo. Libby Strout, outrora a rapariga mais gorda da América, conseguiu finalmente juntar os pedaços do coração destroçado pela morte da mãe e está pronta para voltar a viver. Ultrapassou a dor, o luto, a humilhação. Superou-se e transformou-se e o que mais deseja é ser a rapariga que consegue ser tudo o que quer. No entanto, o resto do liceu não parece partilhar deste entusiasmo de Libby. Não parecem sequer perceber quanto mudou... Jack Masselin é o típico rapaz popular do liceu: bonito, charmoso, sempre com o comentário certo na hora certa. No entanto, o gosto que tem em perceber a mecânica dos objetos, em reconstruir e transformar todas as coisas que encontra, não lhe serve de muito na sua incapacidade para reconhecer caras. Jack tem prosopagnosia, e todos à sua volta, familiares e amigos incluídos, lhe parecem desconhecidos e são, para ele, um autêntico quebra-cabeças. Quando o destino junta Libby e Jack naquilo que aparenta ser um castigo injusto, a solidão que cada um sente dá lugar a sentimentos muito diferentes... Uma história de superação e de um amor verdadeiro e invulgar que nos devolve a esperança no mundo, em nós e no outro.

*** IL NUOVO STRAORDINARIO ROMANZO DI JENNIFER NIVEN *** Affascinante. Divertente. Distaccato. Ecco le tre parole d''ordine di Jack Masselin, diciassette anni e un segreto ben custodito: Jack non riesce a riconoscere il volto delle persone. Nemmeno quello dei suoi genitori, o quello dei suoi fratelli. Per questo si è dovuto impegnare molto per diventare Mister Popolarità. Si è esercitato per anni nell''impossibile arte di conoscere tutti senza conoscere davvero nessuno, di farsi amare senza amare a propria volta. E finora è riuscito a cavarsela. Ma le cose prendono una piega inaspettata quando Jack vede per la prima volta Libby. Libby che non è come le altre ragazze. Libby che porta addosso tutto il peso dell''universo: un passato difficile e tanti, troppi chili per poter essere accettata dai suoi compagni di scuola. Un giorno, per non sfigurare davanti agli amici, Jack prende di mira Libby in un gioco crudele, che spedisce entrambi in presidenza. Libby però non è il tipo che si lascia umiliare, e il suo incontro con Jack diventa presto uno scontro. Al mondo non esistono due caratteri più diversi dei loro. Eppure... più Jack e Libby si conoscono, meno si sentono soli. Perché ci sono persone che hanno il potere di cambiare tutto. Anche una vita intera. Dopo il clamoroso successo di Raccontami di un giorno perfetto, Jennifer Niven torna con un nuovo, straordinario romanzo che parla del potere salvifico dell''amore e del momento magico in cui incontriamo qualcuno capace di vederci - e di accettarci - per come siamo: imperfetti, fragili, veri. «L''universo nei tuoi occhi è il nuovo Colpa delle stelle.» - Teenvogue.com «Una straordinaria riflessione sull''importanza di accettarsi per quello che si è.» - School Library Journal «Due protagonisti che resteranno indelebili nel vostro cuore e una storia d''amore che vi mozzerà il fiato.» - Publishers Weekly «Bello, intenso, centrato su due personaggi borderline [...] Le pagine trasudano vitalità e ironia» - Claudia Morgoglione, «La Repubblica» «Jennifer Niven, la regina della letteratura Young Adult» - «La Repubblica»

From #1 Sunday Times bestselling author Jennifer Niven, a novel about America’s favorite TV family, whose perfect façade starts to crack, for fans of Lessons in Chemistry and The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. * * * For two decades, Del and Dinah Newman and their sons, Guy and Shep, have ruled television as America’s Favorite Family. Millions of viewers tune in every week to watch them play flawless, black-and-white versions of themselves. But now it’s 1964, and the Newmans’ perfection suddenly feels woefully out of touch. Ratings are in free fall, as are the Newmans themselves. Del is keeping an explosive secret from his wife, and Dinah is slowly going numb—literally. Steady, stable Guy is hiding the truth about his love life, and rock ‘n roll idol Shep may finally be in real trouble. When Del—the creative motor behind the show— is in a mysterious car accident, Dinah decides to take matters into her own hands. She hires Juliet Dunne, an outspoken young reporter, to help her write the final episode. But Dinah and Juliet have wildly different perspectives about what it means to be a woman, and a family, in 1964. Can the Newmans hold it together to change television history?

Il bestseller che ha commosso milioni di lettori in tutto il mondo. *** Vincitore premio ""Mare di Libri"" *** *** Finalista al Premio Andersen 2016 nella categoria Miglior Libro oltre i 15 anni *** ------------------- È una gelida mattina di gennaio quella in cui Theodore Finch decide di salire sulla torre campanaria della scuola per capire come ci si sente a guardare di sotto. L''ultima cosa che si aspetta però è di trovare qualcun altro lassù, in bilico sul cornicione a sei piani d''altezza. Men che meno Violet Markey, una delle ragazze più popolari del liceo. Eppure Finch e Violet si somigliano più di quanto possano immaginare. Sono due anime fragili: lui lotta da anni con la depressione, lei ha visto morire la sorella in un terribile incidente d''auto. È in quel preciso istante che i due ragazzi provano per la prima volta la vertigine che li legherà nei mesi successivi. I giorni, le settimane in cui un progetto scolastico li porterà alla scoperta dei luoghi più bizzarri e sconosciuti del loro Paese e l''amicizia si trasformerà in un amore travolgente, una drammatica corsa contro il tempo. E alla fine di questa corsa, a rimanere indelebile nella memoria sarà l''incanto di una storia d''amore tra due ragazzi che stanno per diventare adulti. Quel genere d''incanto che solo le giornate perfette sono capaci di regalare. Raccontami di un giorno perfetto è un romanzo commovente e coraggioso. Una storia che spezza il cuore in tutti i modi possibili e ci ricorda che cosa significa essere vivi. «Un vero inno alla vita. Ogni adolescente dovrebbe leggere Raccontami di un giorno perfetto» - Corriere della Sera «Uno straordinario caso letterario» - Sette - Corriere della Sera «Un romanzo che è una contagiosa voglia di riscossa» - TuttoLibri-La Stampa «Jennifer Niven è la regina della letteratura Young Adult» - la Repubblica «Una storia d''amore profonda, un viaggio straordinario nelle paure degli adolescenti» - Vanity Fair «Incantevole e crudele al tempo stesso» - Famiglia Cristiana «Un caso letterario che parla ai ragazzi con grande sincerità» - Ansa

O emoționantă poveste de dragoste despre o fată care învață să trăiască de la un băiat care vrea să moară. Theodore Finch e fascinat de moarte și se gândește neîncetat la tot felul de modalități în care și-ar putea pune capăt zilelor. Violet Markey trăiește pentru viitor, numărând zilele rămase până la absolvire. Cand Finch ar putea evada atât din micul ei oraș din Indiana, cât și din suferința copleșitoare provocată de recenta moarte a surorii sale. Când Finch și Violet se întâlnesc pe marginea clopotniței de la școală, nu este foarte limpede cine pe cine salvează. Iar când devin parteneri într-un proiect de descoperire a „minunilor naturale“ din statul lor, amândoi fac descoperiri mult mai importante: Finch poate fi el însuși numai alături de Violet. Iar Violet numai alături de Finch poate uita de numărătoarea zilelor și poate începe să le trăiască. Însă, în timp ce lumea lui Violet crește, a lui Finch începe să scadă. O carte impresionantă despre doi liceeni amuzanți, fragili și suferinzi. -- Entertainment Weekly Multe romane pentru adolescenți tratează teme similare, dar puține o fac într-o manieră memorabilă. -- Kirkus Reviews Ai terminat Sub aceeași stea? Poți începe acest roman emoționant despre o fată care își promite sieși să trăiască având un rost, după o relație cu un băiat care plănuiește să-și ia viața. -- SELF Magazine „Mă învelesc în pilotă cât de strâns pot – astfel încât nu mai pot zări nici camera – și mă întind pe spate în pat, ca o mumie. Este o modalitate de a conserva căldura și lumina, ca să nu mai poată ieși iar. Întind o mână prin deschizătură și apuc altă carte, apoi alta. Și dacă viața ar fi așa? Făcută numai din părți fericite, niciuna îngrozitoare, nici măcar neplăcută. Și dacă ne-ar sta în putere să decupăm răul, pur și simplu, și să păstrăm doar binele? Asta este ceea ce vreau să fac pentru Violet – să-i ofer numai binele, să o țin departe de rău, așa încât acel bine să rămână pentru totdeauna împrejurul nostru.“

Universul pe umerii tai - Jennifer Niven Bestseller New York Times De la autoarea romanului Toate acele locuri minunate, bestseller New York Times Jennifer Niven revine cu o noua poveste de iubire tulburatoare si antrenanta despre cum poti gasi persoana care te vede asa cum esti cu adevarat. Toata lumea crede ca o cunoaste pe Libby Strout, fata care a fost poreclita candva „Cea Mai Grasa Adolescenta" din America. Dar nimeni nu face efortul de a incerca sa vada dincolo de fizicul ei. Toata lumea crede ca il cunoaste pe Jack Masselin. E fermecator si amuzant. Dar nimeni nu stie ca ascunde un secret. Deviza lui este: fii cool, dar nu te apropia prea tare de cineva. Pana cand Jack o intalneste pe Libby si amandoi se trezesc antrenati intr-un joc dur de liceeni, ce presupune munca in folosul comunitatii si consiliere – la inceput sunt furiosi, apoi surprinsi. Fiindca isi dau seama de ceva: cu cat petrec mai mult timp impreuna, cu atat se simt mai putin singuri. Pentru ca atunci cand cunosti pe cineva, si lumea ta, si lumea celuilalt se schimba. "Jennifer Niven creeaza doua personaje memorabile si o poveste de iubire induiosatoare." - Publishers Weekly "O explorare subtila a identitatii si a felului in care ne putem accepta pe noi insine." - School Library Journal "Fiind mai mult o poveste despre cum sa te iubesti pe tine insuti, romanul lui Jennifer Niven vine in sprijinul tuturor celor care incearca din rasputeri sa se accepte asa cum sunt." - Kirkus Reviews Desi si-a dorit dintotdeauna sa fie un inger al lui Charlie, adevarata pasiune a lui Jennifer Niven este scrisul. Prima sa carte, The Ice Master, a fost nominalizata de Entertainment Weekly printre cele mai bune zece carti de nonfictiune ale anului 2000 si a fost tradusa in numeroase limbi. Pe baza ei s-au facut o serie de documentare TV in Germania, Canada si Marea Britanie. Jennifer Niven a scris si Velva Jean, o serie de patru romane. De aceeasi autoare, la Editura Trei a aparut Toate acele locuri minunate, roman distins cu GoodReads Choice Award for Best Young Adult Fiction 2015, declarat Cea mai buna carte a anului 2015 de catre Time Magazine, NPR, The Guardian, Publisher’s Weekly, YALSA, Barnes & Noble, The New York Public Library si nominalizat la Carnegie Medal si la The Guardian Children’s Fiction Prize. A fost peste 30 de saptamani bestseller New York Times, iar drepturile de publicare au fost vandute in 41 de tari. Romanul va fi ecranizat, cu Elle Fanning in rolul principal. Jennifer Niven a creat recent Germ, o revista online pentru adolescente, precum cea din Toate acele locuri minunate, care celebreaza inceputurile, viitorul si toate momentele uluitoare dintre ele.

Ein kurzer Sommer zwischen Liebe und Verzweiflung Eine Woche vor dem Abi zerbricht Claudes Welt in tausend Scherben, als sie erfährt, dass ihre Eltern sich scheiden lassen. Statt in den Ferien mit ihrer besten Freundin auf den Road Trip ihres Lebens zu gehen, zieht Claude nun mit ihrer Mutter auf eine abgelegene Insel vor der Küste Georgias. Die Wut ist ihr Schutzschild gegen jeden, der ihr zu nahekommt. Denn wozu jemandem trauen, wenn er einen irgendwann im Stich lässt? Doch dann begegnet Claude Jeremiah Crew, der sie mitnimmt auf ein großes Abenteuer. Und gemeinsam beweisen sie, dass das Ende einer Geschichte keine Rolle spielt, wenn das Dazwischen so unerträglich schön ist. Das kann nur Jennifer Niven so genial schreiben: Die Geschichte zweier zutiefst verletzter junger Menschen, die einander retten und dabei sich selbst finden Der Zauber der ersten wahren Liebe - ein Buch, in dem man leben möchte "Du warst der Erste. Nicht bloß beim Sex, auch wenn das ein Teil davon war. Sondern der Erste, der hinter alle Fassaden geschaut und mich wirklich gesehen hat. Einige der Namen und Orte wurden geändert, aber die Geschichte ist wahr. Es steht alles hier drin, denn eines Tages wird dies die Vergangenheit sein. Und ich will nicht vergessen, was ich erlebt habe, was ich dachte, was ich fühlte, wer ich war. Ich will dich nicht vergessen. Aber vor allen Dingen will ich mich nicht vergessen." - Jennifer Niven
