FROM THE BOOKSELLER
Why we chose it
A vampire story that is really about loneliness. Stockholm suburbs, 1981, snow everywhere: a bullied twelve-year-old boy makes friends with the strange girl next door, who only comes out at night. Tender and terrifying in equal measure, and much more than a horror novel. Perfect for the first cold nights.

ABOUT THE BOOK
The international bestseller behind the film Let Me In and the stage play Let the Right One In
Oskar and Eli. In very different ways, they were both victims. Which is why, against the odds, they became friends. And how they came to depend on one another, for life itself.
Oskar is a 12-year-old boy living with his mother on a dreary housing estate at the city's edge. He dreams about his absentee father, gets bullied at school, and wets himself when he's frightened.
Eli is the young girl who moves in next door. She doesn't go to school and never leaves the flat by day. She is a 200-year-old vampire, forever frozen in childhood, and condemned to live on a diet of fresh blood.
John Ajvide Lindqvist's novel is a unique and brilliant fusion of social novel and vampire legend, a deeply moving fable about rejection, friendship and loyalty.
