Moa Eriksson SandbergThe Swedish answer to the ‘Bridgerton’ series, with sales of over 65,000 copies and counting.
Ellen’s Choice is a unique and addictive romance series about love and sisterhood, set in a thrilling time of societal change, taking place in a university town filled with dreams.
When we first meet Ellen, it’s 1915 and she has just disembarked from the train to Ljungsala, a university town in southern Sweden. She has gone there to meet her sister, but soon, she’s drawn in by city life’s many temptations. For the first time in her life, Ellen feels as if the possibilities are endless, and she finds both new friendships and love interests. A spark has been lit; maybe she too can become someone? But the road towards her dreams turns out to be more difficult than she first thought.
In a world caught inbetween the 19th and 20th century, women are beginning to find their own way – in life and in love, and Ellen and her friends will both find love and get their hearts broken, choose new thrilling professions and be disappointed by life’s turns, fight publicly in the women’s suffrage movement for the vote, and fight privately for the right to choose.
Ellen’s Choice is a special project by LoveReads, an imprint by Bokförlaget Forum, where storyline, characters, voices and concept has been created by a writer’s room, and then been written to perfection by three authors so far.
Helena Dahlgren, who has also been part of the writer’s room, wrote the first two, Ellens Choice: Devotion and Ellens Choice: New Life. The series was then picked up by Moa Eriksson-Sandberg in book three, Ellen’s Choice: Temptation, four, Ellen’s Choice: Freedom, and five, Ellen’s Choice: Meetings at Dusk. Lastly, books six and seven, Ellen’s Choice: Forbidden Wish and Ellen’s Choice: Secrets have been written by Elvira Berg-Ashby, who has also written Ellens Choice: Summer Nights, that was released spring 2024.
