Congrats with your birthday, Eva!!! 🥳( )

Eva Linden (born 1992) is a Flemish writer with a penchant for travel, cosplay and photography. She has been writing stories for as long as she can remember, at least since she taught herself to read at the age of five because she had finished the children's books from the school library and wanted to start on the 'big people's books'.

In 2016, she debuted with the fantasy novel 'Moon Sick', the first part of an exciting trilogy that was soon completed with 'Alpine Glow' and 'Evening Star'. In 2020, her first thriller/detective 'Werewolves of Waraine' was published. Eva is currently working on a high-fantasy series based on the popular role-playing game 'Dungeons and Dragons' and some feel-good short stories to be published by Hamley.

Eva has lived in rural Nijlen since 2019, together with her husband, their cat Ainsa and their bunnies. In addition to writing, Eva works as a personal assistant for people with disabilities.

🍲Did you know that since 2009 there is a new holiday in Belgium? Namely: Potjebuur day (a dish for the neighbors). Simultaneously with the Sugar Festival of the Muslims, in which the sharing of food with family and neighbors is central, this celebration will take place annually. With "Potjebuur", this thoughtful, heartfelt and tasty custom from the Muslim culture is integrated into the rest of society.

Notification: for vampire Vladimir von Rotenbeck that would have to be a dish with tomatoes, because he is allergic to blood. 😜

After the Great Water War, the new regime introduced strict rules. One of those rules is the mandatory exam for girls, which determines their future place in society. What happens to the girls who fail is a secret. All Nimue knows is that they never return to their families. Will she pass the exam? Can she survive in this new reality?"

🤝Today is Dutch-American Friendship Day! In the United States, on Tuesday, April 19, the 240-year bond of friendship between the Netherlands and America will be commemorated. To celebrate, we are highlighting a book set in America.

Do you know him already?

"The first explosions sounded like firecrackers, until the screaming starts. Hidden in a small attic with five others, Willem desperately listens to the cries for help. They are in the middle of nowhere, nobody will come to help them. How long will it take for the gunmen to discover their hiding place?
Jake stares confusedly at the festively dressed guests who run up the stairs in panic, realizing too late that there is no way out for them. Shots echo through the building, he sees the gunmen coming toward him. He realizes that only death awaits him if he doesn't react right away.
Willem and Jake make a drastic decision. Waiting for death is not an option. Panicking isn't either. Two separate stories about the same drama are woven into a unique book."

Rémi from "Upgrade", a book by , may not go into space, but he does have exciting, futuristic adventures. 😃

Rémi has had enough of riddles, half explanations and lame excuses. He is looking for who he is. And why. Rémi has felt different all his life. His parents are hiding something from him, but he can't figure out what.

Rémi wants to know who he is and goes in search of his true identity. But just when he's about to find answers, there's that bang. His house explodes. Remi can't help but grab the hand that is extended to him from the darkness. He ends up in the mysterious Creodrome, an institution where science is ahead of its time. Technology feels like magic. Robots are amazingly similar to humans.

Everything the teen ever dreamed about is reality here. Rémi is overwhelmed by fantastic technology and he meets young people who become friends for life. For the first time he feels at home. Until his past catches up with him and Rémi realizes that he is still in grave danger."
