The new Ebook Original novel called Me on the Floor, Bleeding by Swedish author Jenny Jägerfeld, (Stockholm Text, Ebook, Release Date: July 2013, 280 Pages, $6.99, ISBN: 978-91-87173-93-6) tells the story of a seventeen year old girl named Maja who, in the midst of coping with the fact that her mother has Asperger's, falls in love for the first time.

Each moment is told with such bare bones honesty that one can't help but be drawn in. Maja is both wise beyond her years and naïve in ways one wouldn't expect. Her story begins with an accident that leaves her 'on the floor bleeding' and ends with a bittersweet revelation.

Jenny Jägerfeld is a professional psychologist with experience in adult and young adult psychiatric care. She made her literary debut in 2006, and already her second novel, Me on the Floor, Bleeding was rewarded with the prestigious August Prize for Best Youth Novel in Sweden. Jenny Jägerfeld also works with young adults on a long-running psychology program on Swedish national radio. Me on the Floor, Bleeding is her first novel translated into English.

Stockholm Text, the Swedish based publisher, has made it's mark in the U.S. with their award wining Scandinavian crime series. From best-selling crime fiction to provocative niche publishing, their aim is to entertain, engage, and ignite the minds of readers with the best literature from Sweden. Me on the Floor, Bleeding continues this tradition and will be published as an ebook in July. Stockholm Text will begin a new line of books in trade paperback format in September 2013.
