Coming up next… has been loosely inspired on Should Be Reading’s Teaser Tuesdays, but we decided not to have a specific day for it, and we modified a few details from the original. On Coming up next… we’ll talk a little bit about a book we’re reading or we have already finished reading, but its review has not been published yet.
How it’s going to work: We’ll post an excerpt of the book, without spoilers, and we’ll make a little note about our reading, with an expected publication date for the review, if any.
My book for the Coming up next… today is Matthew Quick’s The Silver Linings Playbook. The book surprised me, being a good and a bad reading experience at the same time. The review will be posted next week, and I hope to see the movie before posting it, so I can compare the book and movie on it…
The excerpt below can be found on chapter one:
I don’t want to stay in the bad place, where no one believes in silver linings or love or happy endings.

Coming up next... #14: Die For Me, Amy Plum
Coming up next... #29: The Book Thief, Markus Zusak
Coming up next... #25: The Prince of Mist, Carlos Ruiz Zafón
Coming up next... #9

I look forward to your review of this Guta because I heard great things about the film adaptation. I also want to read this book before watching the film. Especially since I like the actors who play the main roles
I will try to get a copy of this asap!

I saw a trailer for this at the cinema. It seemed like an okay movie, but apparently I’m missing something, because people rave.
I did not realise there was a book.
