To all my Norwegian readers and to all my new readers abroad. Here is a small introduction of the charming novel figure Lotte-Marie, who is now aiming for the sky, and a few words about me
as the author of these funny, groundbreaking and innovative books. Yep! So they say! 🙂
My name is Trude Helén Hole – I am an Norwegian journalist, a sommelier and coach, and according to the media a very cool “Norwegian influencer” which is of course, absolutely wonderful! But really – I don’t notice anything about it myself, because I am primarily an introvert writer who likes to do my own things. Digging up small trees, flowers and shrubs from my neighbors gardens to give them a new and wonderful home in my own garden, is one of my favorite pursuits.
.
Having said that, I am also according the media and readers – Norway’s funniest author!
.
I was previously with a big publisher in Norway – but last year I established the publishing house
Feather Books Publishing and I already got five, talented writers in my stable. However – the books about Lotte-Marie are being published as audiobooks by
Storytel, and Bladcentralen have bought the whole serie and all the future books.
.
So far, I have written 13 books, both novels, schoolbooks and documentaries – among them 3 books about the charming novel figure Lotte-Marie, which is referred to by the media and readers as Norway’s coolest and funniest books.

Lotte-Marie og Matchmorderen
Friskt språk og mange morsomme bilder og scener. Hole har vel nærmest laget sin egen sjanger med disse bøkene. Jan Ove Ekeberg / Meget vellykket. Hole kjeder aldri! Her er spenning, humor, craziness, politiske vurderinger, tematisk informasjon, seriemordere og sex! Hva vi ønsker mer i neste bok om Lotte-Marie: mer av alt! Øyvind Fygd / Hole er dyktig; jævla morsom og treffende i flekkene. For ikke å snakke om erotikken hun formidler. Anbefales varmt! Gro Storteig / Jeg leser mye bøker og blir ikke lett imponert, så dette var fantastisk! Oppdaget Hole i en YouTube-video og tenkte; hun dama er rå! Jeg kommer til å lese alle bøkene nå! Marianne H. Jensen

The first book about Lotte-Marie was published in 2006, and sold over 6.000 books. At that time, this was a record for a debut novel in Norway. Book number four in the serie,
Lotte-Marie Goes Down Under is soon finished, and the events in this one takes place in Australia. Book number two,
Lotte-Marie Goes to Hollywood, is – yeah, you got it right! 😉
.
The books about Lotte-Marie can be read individually and are considered as Norway’s humorous, sexy and feminin answer to Jo Nesbø´s Harry Hole and Gunnar Staalesens Varg Veum.
.
Here’s some tasty sayings from the media:
.
“Better than Bridget Jones.” Budstikka
“Books for Desire.” MAG
“Norway’s best female author.” Dagsavisen
“Fun, fearless female.” Cosmopolitan
“Norway’s first chick-lit author.” Aftenposten
“The Princess of Humor.” The Asker newspaper
“Summer beach recommendation. Bold stuff for the ladies.” BA
“There is no shy and blushing young girl novel Hole has written.” NTB
.
This year we will publish book number four – and translate them all into English – so be aware. Lotte-Marie is coming to a place near you!
.
.
The books about Lotte-Marie are quite funny, but also have an important message. Good entertainment and humor are universal. But the books about Lotte-Marie are not only considered as Norway’s funniest by the press and readers – they are also important and socially relevant.
.
Lotte-Marie is a tough, funny and brave woman who is struggling with what we all struggle with – pressure from all sides to being the perfect woman.
.
The books deal with the beauty industry, sex and sex pressure and expectations, career and equality – all the things that a woman has to deal with through a lifetime. Especially the beauty hysteria and sexuality are red threads in the books – and of course humor and irony. 🙂
.
I also write a lot about sex, cohabitation and self-development on my blog. My articles about “Leadership through inner motivation” are widely used in management and academic literature. You will find my
English articles here – and
my company here.
.
.
The books are both groundbreaking and innovative. Lotte-Marie and the Match Murderer is a parody of the Crimea, where the heroine herself, meets well known Barry Hole and Varg Lærum. Book number four becomes equivalent – ie a parody of the Crimea with a lot of humor and charm, and unexpected turns.
.
The aim of the books about Lotte-Marie is thus to spread joy and humor, but also to motivate women to relax a little on all the demands, dare to give a little more “fuck it about things”, and to put themselves first and follow their desires more – instead of following frames and rules and give in to outside pressure.
.
The reason why the books about Lotte-Marie are popular also among men – is of course that Lotte-Marie is Norway’s humorous and sexy answer to Harry Hole and Varg Veum. I think men fall in love with the complexity of the Lotte-figure, and of course they learn something about women. Yep – that´s right! 🙂
.
.
I will see you somewhere near you pretty soon! Live by love and joy, and make the world a better place for all of us. Thank you, and have a beautiful day with a lot of love and laughter.
Kisses from Norway!
